Episode 22 – Dissatisfied and disillusioned: Nonprofit professionals are unhappy at work


A new report has highlighted a disturbing and perhaps surprising finding: Job satisfaction in the nonprofit sector appears to be lower than in either the private or public sector. In a sector that focuses on meaningful work, what is driving a significant number of workers to feel dissatisfied? And what does this mean for the future given the existing talent crunch and the need for recruiting younger demographics to work in the sector? In this episode of CharityVillage Connects, listen to sector experts weigh in on this concerning trend and what might be done to turn it around.
