Non-profit Seminar
IT’S TIME TO REINVENT YOUR BOARD
Millions of talented people join non-profit Boards every year to make a difference in the world. They invest huge amounts of personal time, talent and money in their organizations, hoping to make a lasting contribution. Unfortunately, most Boards function well below their potential -- many end up being ‘incompetent groups of competent people. ’
To survive in these challenging times and to build a sustainable future, Boards must reinvent themselves. It’s simple, but not easy.
- Refocus responsibilities on governance instead of oversight
- Select members based on the current stage of your organization’s life cycle
- Mobilize their hearts and minds and leverage their unique talents as a group
- Make a rigorous and intentional Board development strategy the primary objective
