MPR’s Dan Olson reports on Next Innovations, a Minneapolis organization that trains young non-profit employees business and leadership skills….and possibly the next generation of non-profit managers.
The social service needs government and business don't meet are often filled by Minnesota's non-profit organizations. The backbone of many of the non-profits are idealistic young people content to work hard for low pay. The most talented ones win promotions and find themselves managing staff and budgets. But most have little training for their new responsibilities.
