ALL ABOUT BOARDS SERIES 2022
September 28, 2022 @ 9:30 am - 12:00 pm EDT
$4 – $320For all nonprofits, the Board of Directors plays a critical role in making strategic decisions that help to advance an organization’s mission and advance positive impact. For board members to fulfill this role, it is crucial that directors and staff are trained in the responsibilities and demands of effective governance.
The All About Boards program has been designed to provide you with the foundational elements to help you govern effectively while introducing you to emerging issues in board governance. This training provides actionable resources and guidance so nonprofit organizations can move their governance from good to great.
Learn what every board director should know:
- Characteristics of high-performing boards and how you can enhance the performance of your own board
- Frameworks and best practices for effective governance
- Key financial accountabilities and responsibilities associated with the role of a director
- How to attract, recruit and retain the best boards
- Recognize strategic opportunities and risks
Program benefits:
- Increased confidence to carry out your role as board member
- Increased clarity on the roles of board members vs. the roles of staff and operational volunteers
- A more engaged board and stronger alignment to the organizational mission and vision
- Tools to increase the effectiveness of your board meetings
Participants will receive:
- Presentations by subject matter experts, including resources and tools after each session
- An opportunity to build a professional network of board contacts
- A professional development opportunity that can help build your resume
- A certificate of completion (for those that attend all 4 sessions)
LEVEL: Beginner – Intermediate
TARGET AUDIENCE:
- Are you a board member (experienced or new) of a nonprofit or charity and looking to strengthen your board’s effectiveness?
- Are you looking to learn more about board governance and join a board?
- Are you an Executive Director or CEO who would like to build on your boardroom skills and update your awareness of emerging governance issues and trends?
