Following in the footsteps of our last two series of seminars focusing on how to maximize your effectiveness as a board member, we are offering a new program on recruiting members to a non-profit's governing board.
Speakers:
Jan Masaoka, Director and Editor-in-Chief of Blue Avocado, author of Best of the Board Cafe, and former Executive Director of CompassPoint Nonprofit Services.
Identifying, cultivating, recruiting and engaging new board members is an important responsibility of every board. Learn how to recruit effective and engaged board members for your organization. In this workshop, we will discuss:
- How to recruit five great board members in the next three months;
- Recruiting them so that they are immediately engaged;
- Critical Path for the organization and the board; and
- The Board - Executive Director relationship revisited.
Please note that the content is specifically crafted for Board Members. Due to limited capacity, please apply to attend by September 30.
