Exploring the potential of capitalism to drive positive change in charities and overcoming cultural barriers faced by the non-profit sector. The chapter emphasizes the importance of rebranding and organizing the sector to address legal issues and improve effectiveness.
Dan Pallotta, Chief Humanity Officer of Advertising for Humanity and author of Uncharitable talks with EconTalk host Russ Roberts about the ideas in his book. Pallotta argues that charities are deeply handicapped by their culture and how we view them. The use of overhead as a measure of effectiveness makes it difficult for charities to attract the best talent, advertise, and invest for the future. Pallotta advocates a new culture for non-profits that takes the best aspects of the for-profit sector to enhance the mission and effectiveness of charities.
