What Great Boards Do At Their Board Meetings - Feb. 21

Keep in mind: Board meetings are the core of corporate governance. Designing them. Ensuring adequate preparation. And making sure you talk about the right stuff the right way. Staff leads the process of good governance and great board meetings. And leadership staff needs a working knowledge of boards and corporate governance. (It's nice to have a couple of board members who are somewhat knowledgeable, too. But beware! Board service does not, by itself, make them competent in governance.) Join this webinar. You'll learn key concepts and proven strategies. And you'll receive a great handout to use back home.

At the conclusion of this session, participants will:

  • Be aware of the key concepts of corporate governance.
  • Understand the importance of the board meeting.
  • Recognize key components of good board meetings.
 
Target Audience:
  • Fundraisers, executive directors, and other staff who work with board members in committee and board work
  • Volunteers who serve on or aspire to serve on boards
  • Level of experience doesn't matter that much: I've seen far too many boards - even the supposedly sophisticated ones with highly experienced staff - who don't really understand governance…Or choose not to do it well through board meetings.
