Theory And Positive Research On Partnering In Nonprofit Organization In China

After World Conference on Women in 1995, Chinese masses began to know a vocabulary well --Nonprofit organization. Nonprofit organization is the third department independent of government and enterprise, undertaking the task in such respects as culture and education, scientific research, technological progress, medical treatment and health care , entertainment of a part ,etc.. Nonprofit organization develops rapidly in our country in recent years, especially in amount: The public organization was increased sharply to more than 165 thousand by the end of 2000 although only 6000 before 1978; the non-governmental non-enterprise unit developed into 700,000 from zero. Nonprofit organization is playing a more and more important role in the society of our country, becoming an indispensable important component in social progress and development. But at present, numerous nonprofit organizations are restraining from insufficient resource seriously, and the development stagnates. This text starts with analyzing the reason why nonprofit organization produces, propose nonprofit organizations should break the restriction of department as the export, namely the nonprofit organizations of our country needs to establish the partner-ship. Partner-ship setting-up and management need scientific method. This text combines the experience of partner-ship in other fields, and proposes three basic principles needing insisting are "fair", "transparent" and "common interests" while nonprofit organization carries on partner-ship. Also, sum up 12 steps of nonprofit organization partner-ship: define the range, confirm partner, structures, the plan, management, resource distribution, implementing, weighing, evaluation, revises, institutional, sustain or stop finally. Meanwhile, put forward my own suggestion to the definition of nonprofit organization partner-ship: nonprofit organization partner-ship is a resource recomposing course that means through discern the different key business and advantage in the government department and commercial department and similar organizations, nonprofit organizations combine these with resource in itself in order to realize the mission of nonprofit organization and offer the chance of better sustainable development to all participants in partner-ship and reach multi-win. The advantage after establishing the partnership of nonprofit organization can accelerate the formulation that every department participates in the motive. Establish and keep partnership bring lots of difficulty. So, the factors influencing partner-ship are proposed in this text. The positive factors of nonprofit organization partner-ship are as follows, the interests brought by partner-ship and collaborative project. This is decided by final motive that nonprofit organization establishes the cooperation in partner. Partner-ship just wants to realize the participant's multi-win situation. Winning here means not merely the profit, the improvement of public trust and enhancement of one's own strength。Cooperate is being supported by project, so the quality that the project carries out is one of the factors of weighing partner-ship. This text has analyzed the negative factor of partner-ship of nonprofit organizations too. Because trans-departmental cooperation bring nonprofit organization for help of resource, and carry member units certain risk too. Passivism characteristics indifferent departments are enlarged too in cooperating, and difference of cultural environment will bring more obstruction. It is the foundation for next appraisal to discern the influence factors of nonprofit organization partner-ship. After the influence factors are confirmed, the frame of appraising nonprofit organization partner-ship has been set up for the first time too. The interest should be separated from the cooperation project when we evaluate the nonprofit organizations'partner-ship. We should appraise the interests brought to each department. Because the range that nonprofit organization engaged in is wide, try not to consider the content of the concrete trade project while designing the evaluation index, but summarize several main points of the project from big class. Investigate from three respects of efficiency, result and impact on society while appraising the project here. The weight of index is determined with Analytical Hierarchy Process and the value is realized by fuzzy evaluation assessment. I regard a collaborative project which myself is included in as the real example of this text. Evaluate this project according to the model built above and draw the conclusion whether its cooperation succeeds or not. Finally, summarize the question existing in partner-ship of nonprofit organization in our country. First, their organize ability is weak, and they can't play a competent lead role. Because most staff members come from the government organs in nonprofit organization, there is unavoidable administrative color on the management style, not merely lack the initiative, creativity and enterprising spirit,...
