It is hoped that readers will find "Building the Future" useful whether they want to build a brand-new organization or help an existing organization grow. Although there will be information specific to Metis organizations, the majority of Part 1 applies to organizational building in general and we tried to make it all-encompassing. This electronic manual is a living document and will be updated and added to periodically. We hope you'll check back frequently for updates. Good luck with your organization!
