Non-profits present specific challenges. Conflict can erupt in various spheres. Executive Directors of organizations may experience conflict with staff or board members. The boards of non-profits are populated with volunteers, many with strong personalities and people of influence. Conflict among board members is not uncommon. Left unresolved, this conflict and split a board and the very organization. Some non-profits interface with a constituency. If the non-profit appears to move in a direction opposed to some vocal supporters, the risk can be great. Support from major donors is critical for non-profits. Occasionally, conflict may emerge between a major donor and the organization. Non-profits work on limited budgets and depend of funding from either foundations, grants, or donors. The cost of conflict can devastate or even close a non-profit.
