Description:

Why is board governance one of the most common and persistent problems for nonprofits? Many in the sector have come to the realization that the problem is with the traditional governance model itself and new models are urgently needed. This workshop presents a new governance framework, which has been nationally recognized as one of the true innovative developments in the field. Community-EngagementGovernance™ is an innovative and effective framework that includes an organization’s stakeholders in key governance decisions for an organization’s future. It is an approach in which governance responsibility is shared among the key sectors of an organization, including its constituents and community, staff, and board to ensure community impact, responsiveness to constituent needs, and high quality decision-making. Participants will learn about this new framework and tools to help them adapt it to their own organization and communities.

Part of the NonprofitWebinars.com Wednesday Webinar series for nonprofit staff and board development. Offering strategy, planning, organizational development, branding, marketing, executive search, finance, fundraising, operations, and more.
