Elevating Board Excellence: Best Practices in Development and Governance

Description:

Building a strong, effective nonprofit board doesn’t happen by accident. But too often, organizations struggle with boards that are passionate yet unprepared for the real work of governance. Without clear protocols, intentional recruitment, and meaningful development, boards can unintentionally become a source of tension rather than a strategic asset.

During this webinar, Mindy Muller will walk you through best practices in board development and governance, offering a practical, step-by-step primer on how to build and sustain a high-functioning board. You’ll discover how to address common challenges head-on and move from reactive board management to confident, effective governance.

You’ll learn how to:

• identify the specific skills, experience, and perspectives your board truly needs;
• recruit board members strategically rather than relying solely on personal networks;
• onboard new members in a way that sets clear expectations and builds confidence;
• develop and train board members to govern effectively and consistently; and,
• establish strong protocols that reduce conflict and improve board performance

Who should attend:

This webinar is ideal for board leaders, executive staff, and nonprofit professionals who want to strengthen board practice, prevent recurring challenges, and ensure their board is equipped to guide the organization forward with clarity and excellence.

After the webinar, you’ll receive:

• slides and handouts; and,
• a link to the webinar recording.
