Directing the Future: Leadership through Board Service

David Styers, Senior Governance Consultant, BoardSource

What does it take to be a really smart and effective leader on a nonprofit board in today’s world? Most people come to board service with limited, if any, governance experience or formal training to be a successful board member. Yet, being a board member is the most important volunteer position in any nonprofit. This session targets those who are new to boards and those who have some experience but wish to "sharpen their saws."

Learn how to be the most effective board member possible so that you can shoulder the breadth of your legal and strategic responsibilities and maximize both your time and your immediate contributions to the nonprofit and mission you so passionately serve.

Note: This is a three-hour clinic.
