Description:
Nonprofit boards need strong skills and a thorough understanding of their role to serve effectively.  The purpose of the Board Masters workshop is to provide guidance and skills-building opportunities for people who want to be better members of nonprofit boards of directors.  Board Masters was created for board members, nonprofit board veterans and those new to board service.  We cover the most important aspects of board governance in this interactive, intensive program.  At the end of this training, you will be able to describe how effective boards function, tackle the essential tasks of nonprofit board members, and create a plan of action to address opportunities to improve.

You will learn:

What it means to be legally and socially accountable for your organization.
Principles of sound financial oversight.
The board's role in fundraising.
The role of the board as "employer".
Board conduct and how to develop a well-rounded, effective board of directors.

Board Masters is suitable for organizations big and small, regardless of mission focus.  It is best for board members who:

Want to better understand the role of a nonprofit board.
Want to be a better board member.
Want to learn about nonprofit governance.
Wonder whether their board is fulfilling its role.
Despite their passion for the organization, are feeling disengaged and/or untapped as a board member.

It is strongly encouraged that at least two people from a given organization attend this training together.
