Transnational NGO Initiative and Maxwell Center for Career Devlopment Present: Managing Stakeholder Relationships in Transnational Nonprofits

So you’ve landed your dream job at an international non-profit: How do you work with your colleagues to make the most of it?

Balancing the expectations and needs of donors, board members, and personnel can be especially complicated in Transnational NGOs because factors like multiple nationalities, cultures, and languages can further complicate differing perspectives on how to best fulfill the NGO’s mission.
This panel of NGO practitioners (who may also happen to be your classmates!) will address practitioner experiences in managing TNGO donor, board, and personnel relations, and how the unique attributes of TNGOs can make that task both more rewarding and more challenging.
