Strategic Focus at the Board Table

 Registration is closed for this event
Boards of Directors have a critical responsibility for setting the strategic directions for their nonprofits, but too often end up focused on operations and micro-management of staff.

While exercising good oversight of operations is critical, what steps can we take to help our Boards develop and maintain the strategic focus and good governance demands?
Participants will come away from the session with:
• Enhanced understanding of what it means to be strategic
• Suggestions for using Board recruitment and orientation as tools in building the capacity for strategic thinking
• Concrete ideas for managing and structuring Board meetings that support strategic thinking
• Insight into the relationship between Board and staff in ensuring a strategic focus at the Board table
