NFPs Should Not Be Business-Like: UK Expert - Pro Bono Australia Article
Pro Bono Australia, 23 September 2010
UK Not for Profit sector expert, Debra Allcock Tyler has slammed the argument that NFPs should act more like businesses saying it goes against all the reasons that NFPs exist.
Speaking at the Victorian Government’s Think Innovation Summit, Allcock Tyler says she finds it offensive how much is written about how NFPs need to be run better and behave more like the business world.
She says the constant comparison between practices in the business and Not for Profit sectors is ironic, as it was the failure of corporate governance and banks that plunged the world into a recession.

About Us
Voice for SONG:
- promotes the recognition of the value, efficiencies and effectiveness of small community organisations (in a climate that values large organisations over small organisations across all sectors)
- actively promotes policies and strategies that support the sustainability and development of small community organisations
- encourages small community organisations to take leadership roles
- connects and develops cooperative and collaborative relationships between small community organisations, medium and large NGOs (non- Government organisations) peaks, government, business and the general community to progress issues for small community organisations.
- is a vehicle for information exchange, discussion, consultation about key policy, program and service delivery issues affecting small community human service organisations
- works with existing lobby groups such as NCOSS to ensure all levels of government are aware of key policy and sector development issues for small community organisations
While Voice for SONG acknowledges that NCOSS and other peaks have always and will continue to represent and advocate for their member organisations, including small community organisations, Voice for SONG aims to have a complementary and non-competitive role with NCOSS and other peaks. Voice for SONG will lobby NCOSS and other peaks to advocate for the benefit of small community organisations.
Voice for SONG is currently a NSW network with secretariat support provided by Western Sydney Community Forum (WSCF) and blog maintained by TRI Community Exchange Inc.
