As bad as these corrupt nonprofits are, they're not the biggest problem facing the social sector, according to Berger.

While I was presenting, I was thinking what ten-minute chunk to cut or where I should skip through some slides. I also didn't facilitate the whole room discussion around the slides which I usually do because I worried about going over time.
