This brief will discuss human resource management and leadership regeneration trends and challenges among NGOs in Indonesia that arise from the findings of mixed methods research conducted during the National NGO Study and Service Centre (NSSC) design process. The findings provide insights about the current situation and trends on these issues at both individual organisational and NGO sector levels in Indonesia. In addition to findings from the quantitative and qualitative field research, the brief also discusses lessons from the international context and other research. Challenges facing the NGO sector on these issues include lack of capacity development for staff, centralised decision-making processes, high turnover rates, and lack of leadership regeneration. These trends could affect organisational performance and sustainability both for individual organisations and the NGO sector as a whole. The brief identifies strategies for addressing these challenges and suggests possible practical and policy recommendations for Indonesian NGO directors, funders, government officials, and private sector Corporate Social Responsibility managers.
