Do you have effective nonprofit board members?
There can be no better feeling than serving the community for a good cause, but solely relying on the good intentions of volunteers is too risky, even for the noblest missions. Organizational structure, clear policies and procedures, well-trained board members who understand their role as a governing body, and board members who stay in their lane by not involving themselves in the agency's daily operations are all important factors in board success. Taking the time and energy to set the structure in place, learning from past mistakes, and investing in the onboarding of new members, as well as the continuing skill development of all board members, can make a difference in the longevity and impact of a nonprofit organization can have.
