Abstract
Ask nonprofit managers and they will likely concur that their employees are their most valuable asset-trumping their mission, reputation, or program of activities in importance. Given that nonprofit organizations (NPOs) often provide services to vulnerable groups in society and their employees are engaged in some form of knowledge work, the value attributed to human resources is hardly surprising. Managing and sustaining the commitment of these employees is therefore a central management function in NPOs.
