Material type: materialTypeLabelBookPublisher: International Review of Administrative Sciences Description: 86(2), Jun, 2020: p.368-387.Subject(s): Goal change, Nonprofit management, Nonprofit Organizations, Resource dependence patterns, Social value In: International Review of Administrative SciencesSummary: Resource acquisition is an important factor for the survival and success of nonprofit organizations. Nonprofit organizations are not free from the demands of potential funders and they experience involuntary goal changes in competitive environments. This article investigates the relationships among resource dependence patterns (resource dependency, resource competitiveness, and resource diversity), goal change, and social value in nonprofit organizations. The findings suggest that competition for financial resources (resource competitiveness) is positively associated with goal change in nonprofit organizations. Goal change in an environment of high resource competitiveness has a negative effect on social value. On the other hand, the empirical findings show that a diversified or balanced revenue structure (high resource diversity) helps nonprofit organizations to maintain their social value. – Reproduced
