Recommended Books – Program Management

For-profits and nonprofits tends to use the term “program” differently. Nonprofits often refer to programs as the various different
sets of services they provide to meet community needs. For-profits often use the term to refer to a highly organized set of activities to accomplish
a certain — often internal — goal, for example, Employee Assistance Program to help employees in crisis or a quality management program. However, the
guidelines to carefully plan, operate and evaluate programs actually pertain to both types of organizations.
