Don’t Cook the Frog:
Lessons from a Nonprofit’s Near-Death Experience

“An organization that is not capable of perpetuating itself has failed.” — Peter Drucker

Eckerd Connects was a nonprofit that gradually lost sight of its original mission and almost didn’t survive — much like the fable of the frog being slowly boiled in a pot of water.

“Don’t Cook the Frog” will teach you how to remain healthy and agile to fulfill your mission as you grow and transform. By accepting reality, operationalizing your values, prioritizing execution, and conquering the messy middle, you can deliver on your organization’s promise of change.
