“As I read this book, I kept wanting to shout out, ’Amen!’ Finally someone argues so clearly why understanding if a social solution is working is not a luxury or a ’nice to have’ but rather an absolute necessity for our new reality.”
“A successful entrepreneur and an entrepreneurial philanthropist, Mario delivers an emphatic message in this valuable monograph: A highly disciplined managerial approach is absolutely essential if nonprofits are to produce the demonstrable and sustainable impact that all desire.”
“The release of Leap of Reason could not have come at a better time for Saint Luke’s Foundation. We have used your book to inform a complete re-design of our approach to grantmaking and outcomes/learning.”

I recommend to other professors that they include the book in their courses. Best of all, it’s available to students for free online.”
“In this environment of shrinking dollars and increasing complexity, Leap of Reason, provides an excellent road map to help social sector executives focus on the highest and best use of their precious resources.
