In an age when one is quick to act, our causes often loss energy, no matter how important the issues at hand are. Be prepared and be ready for the changes that need to be made. Read this once or twice and always keep it handy. I often review it after meetings or when I need to think of a way to empower the people.
The best step-by-step organizing manual I have ever seen.

This book is based on the organizing model of the Midwest Center for Labor research, but could be useful in any type of organizing -- from citizen's groups to national policy campaigns. The book takes you through a step-by-step organizing model that helps you to define your goals, choose an issue and think of strategies and tactics for accomplishing your goals. It contains many worksheets that would be useful for group decision-making processes. Unlike most organizing manuals, this one is clear, concise, and very helpful
