We talk a lot about the challenges of nonprofit work—but there are some parts of the sector that don't get nearly enough attention.

In this episode of The Nonprofit Insider Podcast, I break down my Top 5 Most Underrated Parts of Working at a Nonprofit, including:

5. Leadership Is Even More Important Than You Think — Why leadership can shape virtually every part of your nonprofit experience.

4. HR Is Everywhere — Why Human Resources affects far more than hiring, firing, and employee handbooks.

3. Nonprofit Health Is Big Business — Health care is big business. And many of those businesses are nonprofits with big bank accounts

2. The Amount of Uber-Rich Organizations — There are some seriously wealthy nonprofits out there. And yes, we're talking about just how much money some organizations actually have.

1. The Mission — The thing that brought many of us into the nonprofit sector in the first place—and why it can still be one of the most underrated parts of the job.

Five things that don't always get the attention they deserve—but absolutely should.
