Abstract

The aim of this paper is to indicate what insights could be gained from investigating the interplay between the latest research in multi-project management and the specifics of nonprofit organizations management - in terms of the primacy of mission formulation, board governance and donor priority. The paper approaches projectification of nonprofit organizations from a diachronic perspective - exposing the organizational design and governance from the incorporation of nonprofit organization to the projectification phase, and links the enactment of the nonprofit mission to the processes of leading strategies through projects, integration mechanisms and human resources allocation. As results of this research the paper proposes the enrichment of nonprofit boards with project managers and the emergence of a multi-dimessional model for assessing the roles of project teams and teams members in nonprofit organizations operating in multi project settings under the restriction of nonprofit management specfics.
