Developing Engaged & Energized Nonprofit Boards

Nonprofit Education & Training (NET) Workshop September 17th

Workshop Overview:
We all want to leave a lasting legacy. During this two-hour workshop, attendees will discover how they can have a greater impact as leaders of a nonprofit organization; either as paid staff members or as board volunteers. We will explore ways to keep the Board from micromanaging the organization and the effective interaction between staff members and the Board of Directors. Finally, we will review the importance of good Board leadership, recruitment, orientation and annual reports.
