Board Governance: Your Nonprofit Super Power
- Is your board leading your organization effectively…or pushing it up a never-ending hill?
- Having trouble getting everyone to lead in the same direction?
- Does it feel like a school project where only a couple of people are doing all the work?
- Are you having trouble engaging board members and attracting new members?
- Are you doing the basics well but still need to grow?
- Are you poised and ready for the next step in your organization?
- Don’t know where to start?
- The Trainer Workshop: This initial workshop provides superheroes with the fundamental tools and information on board governance. At least one person from the team/board must attend, but everyone is welcome!
- Take Along Training Modules: There are 5 modules that allow the superhero to bring information to the rest of the nonprofit board and executive staff. The modules include a PowerPoint, a superhero trainer teaching sheet, and an exercise to reinforce key objectives. These modules are made to be brief and engaging, and they can be used one at a time in board meetings, or all at once at a board retreat.
Key Takeaways:
Each superhero trainer will use the take along training materials and what they have learned to present to and educate the entire board. The system is formatted into five educational modules.- Training on how to present the information in an engaging way to the rest of the boards they serve on, chair, or work with in an executive leadership role.
- Critical exercise ideas to help cement learning.
- Discussion with peers on leading practices and sharing of ideas.
- Printed and digital materials needed to reproduce learning on:
- The Legal Obligations of Nonprofit Boards
- The Roles & Responsibilities of Nonprofit Boards
- The Roles of Individual Board Members & the Staff/Board Relationship
- The Board Building Cycle
- Exceptional Board Governance, Including Committees, Terms, and Meetings
- Three things you implement now to create a healthier, happier, more productive board!
