Nonprofit boards of directors vary widely. Most spend time helping their organizations be more effective, but few give the same attention to how the board could do its job better. A truly effective board understands its role and responsibilities in the context of the entire organization, and is willing to monitor its own performance on a regular basis. Though it can be difficult at first, boards that pay attention to how they're doing find it makes their job easier.

Topics include:

• Responsibilities and expectations of board members
• Using a "job description" as a means of guiding your board
• Structuring relationships between the board, committees, and staff
• Getting committees to do the work of the board
• Assessing your board’s needs and recruiting new members

Cost: $50 per person, includes templates and materials boards can customize for their needs

Instructor:: Nonprofit Works president, Paul Mastrodonato, has served on and leads numerous boards and advises them on their role and how to be more productive
