Finding, orienting and supporting effective people to serve on your Board of Directors is a critical step in building a Board that can provide the strategic leadership and vision needed to navigate today’s uncertainties and rapid change.
Participants will come away able to:
• critically assess current recruitment and screening processes with a view to enhancing the organization’s ability to recruit an effective Board;
• design an orientation process that ensures Board members, current and incoming, have the knowledge they need to be effective around the Board table, and;
• understand the necessity for Board “orientation” to transform into year-round “capacity-building” processes to meet the demands of a constantly-shifting environment.
