Book excerpt: Stephen Judd, Anne Robinson and Felicity Errington delve into the 'who' and the 'why' central to the purpose of a charity. This book analyses the historical and social context of Australian charities and considers the relationship between charities and Australian society. Organisation leaders, managers and those interested in the way charities can impact their communities will find Driven by Purpose a refreshing and practical approach to this important topic. And while the book draws on Australian experience, the principles and approaches described are applicable across the globe, not only for charities or not-for-profit organisations, but for individuals interested in living life on purpose. In his foreword to the book, former CEO of World Vision Australia, Tim Costello AO, says: 'Those who lead not-for-profit organisations, and those who guide and advise them, will benefit enormously from the practical leadership advice that Anne and Stephen present – advice based on extensive experience.' Driven by purpose was awarded second place in the Australian Christian Book of the Year award 2013.
