摘要: The main purpose of this chapter is to examine the utilization of management solutions in non-profit organizations in Slovenia and compare their utilization with utilization of solutions in profit oriented organizations. We used 357 answers from employees in Slovenian organizations, where 58 answers were from employees in non-profit organizations. The results reveal that examined management solutions are on average in non-profit organizations less used than in the profit oriented organizations. Significantly less used are for instance benchmarking, customer relationship management, mission and vision statements, balanced score card and shared service centers. In terms of the frequency of management solutions utilization, outsourcing, core competencies and strategic planning are most frequently used in non-profit organizations, and benchmarking, mission and vision statements and outsourcing in profit oriented organizations. At the end the paper outlines management solutions, which have potential to bring substantial benefits for improvement of non-profit organizations' working.
