Abstract
Centralto this paper is the task of identifying and understanding what differentiatesnonprofit human resources management from that practiced in public sectoragencies (e.g., federal, state, and local governments). The key differences highlighted here arevolunteer employment, the presence and role of a board of directors, and theemphasis nonprofit organizations place on strategic planning. Understanding these unique areas is arguablyvaluable if it leads to more effective human resource management practices,enhanced techniques, and uniquely tailored approaches to the administration ofnonprofit organizations. The analysisincludes an overview and discussion of topics (e.g., strategic human resourcesmanagement, employee motivation, and compensation) essential to enhancing ourunderstanding of human resources management in the nonprofit sector. Finally, existing literature is surveyed toidentify current trends and inform our discussion of future considerations fornonprofit human resources management.
