Over the past five years, Kathleen Kelly Janus has traveled the country visiting the founders, leadership teams, and funders of dozens of social entrepreneurs, both newcomers and veterans in the field, including the leaders of Teach for America, City Year, DonorsChoose and charity:water.

Her new book, Social Startup Success: How the Best Nonprofits Launch, Scale Up and Make a Difference, features her findings from that study, detailing best practices for testing ideas, measuring impact, funding experimentation, leading collectively and storytelling with purpose.
