Many nonprofits want to expand their size and funding base to bring their mission to more people. Until recently, little information has been available about what it takes to do so successfully. William Foster shares findings from the Bridgespan Group's groundbreaking research on what it takes to be in the big leagues. He discusses exemplars from types of funders to pursue to how to restructure the organization, and also considers whether going big is right for everyone.
