Lin Lerpold, Harry Barkema, Anders Sjoman,(2008) “Hand in Hand in India”
This is a case of SSE. It describes Hand in Hand, a NGO of India mainly donated by Swedish rich, and show its history and issues for the future.
Hand in Hand is one of the successful NGOs. But as its expansion, three problems occurred. First is business model. It means how to cut the cost of operation, and how to manage its expenditure thorough donation or its earnings of its activity. Second is human resources. NGOs usually needs a lot of skill because they have to get into different environment: different culture, value, language, and motivations. It needs a lot of experience and skills even if its salary is not better than companies. The paper indicates the competition of talented people with the booming industries of India. Last is vision. NGO’s vision has no limit, because their missions are universal. However, they should limit their universal mission because of the cost. If they expands their activity infinitely, they spend up their resources because they can not earn money freely by its activities.
In my opinion, NGO’s or NPO’s activities, except for international activities, should be done by its governments. In the first place, keeping basic life of people is completely governmental role because any governments are run by tax; the money from nation for nation. I suggest NGOs and NPOs should cooperate with the government and transfer.
