Annotation: Founded in 1995, Society for Health and Development (SHD) is a non-profit NGO working for health and development in the state of Jharkhand, India. SHD was established with a vision and mission to empower people and communities through collective action. Previously, SHD had organised training programmes and undertaken activities like field action project/research, advocacy, and networking. The organisation also got good funding support from various trust and funding agencies. The organisation’s websites shows that it is a professionally managed organisation with well known people and NGOs associated with it.
The case study shows that it is not necessary that leadership and organisational skill of the head of the organisation will get translated
in his/her organisation. It also shows that individual interest, character and motive play an
important role in organisation development. The case also shows the other side related to nonprofit sector.
