<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><b>What if the work of social change was abundant? It can be.</b> <p/>What if, instead of being exhausted, worn out, disillusioned, and depressed, you were energized and inspired by your important work as a social change leader? What if you were surrounded by endless supporters helping to move your work forward? What if money flowed easily and endlessly to you and your organization? What if the social change you envision happened easily and joyfully? All of this-and more-is within your grasp. <p/>In <i>Reinventing Social Change</i></em>, author, speaker, and consultant Nell Edgington offers a bold new roadmap to overcoming the unfair and limiting system in which social change leaders have operated for too long. Through case studies, exercises, and practical tools, she shows you how to reclaim your power, kiss scarcity goodbye, and attract all the money and people necessary to achieve the social change you offer. <p/>An invaluable guide for nonprofit leaders, philanthropists, community activists, board members, social entrepreneurs, and government decision-makers alike, <i>Reinventing Social Change</i></em> is a critical roadmap for social change leaders who will lead the reinvention of our broken systems into ones that are stronger, healthier, and more equitable.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"This is truly a book for our moment.
