Abstract

Nonprofit organizations are not only different entities in terms of their missionMission and valuesValues, but they are also arguably different kinds of organizations in every way. .The effectiveness and competitive capabilities of nonprofit organizations depend to a significant extent on the strengths of the interactions with stakeholders especially employees. Since employees and volunteers are the human capital of nonprofit organizations and a core factor in their social capital, the interactions that are required for the mission, the formulation, and implementation strategy are inextricably linked to the degree of employee engagement. Therefore, for nonprofit organizations to be effective, to achieve their community problem-solving outcomes, and adapt to change in the fast-paced competitive environment, employee engagement is a core process in their human resources strategy and employment relations.
