board development

(1 DAY)

This workshop walks you through the foundations that make a good board great. Just like your vehicle, you often get the best performance when it's taken in for a tune-up. For many who attend this workshop is a tune-up session that helps develop a healthy and growing board. It provides a platform to review a board at its best, identify root causes of success and discover areas of development.

The facilitator is Gary MacDonald who is a partner in the Alliance For Board Effectiveness

(1 DAY)

Board policies are often relegated to the bottom of the priority list while boards deal with what they see as more pressing issues.  By taking a step back and developing a Board Policy Manual, boards will discover that many of the pressing issues they are dealing with are a result of not having good board policies and practices in place.  This training helps stop the cycle, which give boards a system and the tools to build on.

The online assessment tool is set up so that all board members are sent a link. We set up for them to click and complete an assessment tool online. We track who has completed the process and gently remind those who have yet to complete it. It only takes about 3 minutes with 21 questions. We produce a full report with graphs on the results.

Because it is anonymous, all Board members can fully express their perspectives. We then provide a follow-up assessment call to review the report with the CEO/Board Chair(s). This is a FREE service.

(FREE UNDER 30)

We want to invest in the next generation of board members.  This is why we are offering a free 3-hour interactive online Non-Profit Board Excellence Model training for anyone 30 and under.
