Nonprofit leaders need a strategy to find and keep board members who: care about the cause, have the needed or missing skills, understand their role, and can commit time and resources. This workshop will review key strategies around board recruitment and board member retention. It will deconstruct the process needed to build an effective leadership team that can work together to fulfill a collective set of responsibilities and help the nonprofit achieve its mission. The 45 minute training will be followed by a Q&A where nonprofit leaders can share and exchange in a small group format.

Please join us to gain valuable insight from Claudia Zeldin, a Partner at Growth for Good, a consulting group that is dedicated to helping nonprofits effectively and efficiently serve their mission.

Want to consult with fellow heads of nonprofits (executive directors, CEOs, presidents)? Are you feeling isolated at the top? This is an opportunity to hear what other nonprofit leaders think and share ideas and solutions. Join us for Leadership Exchange, a Mission Control virtual salon.

We will host nonprofit leaders from a variety of organizations to facilitate a one-hour, mission-to-mission, peer-to-peer sharing event. The discussion will focus on board development: targeted recruitment, increasing expectations, engaging committee structures, succession planning, etc. Please come with any questions that your peers can help answer. These will be confidential and casual gatherings.

This event is by invitation only and will be limited to 8 nonprofit Executive Directors per breakout group, so please RSVP to reserve your spot in advance.
