– Board Assessment: Know The Score Whether aiming to win more games, make more money, or win more votes, successful team leaders periodically assess their performance and identify areas to improve. At the highest level in a nonprofit, that role belongs to the Board of Directors, and it starts with assessment. We’ll begin by reviewing the list of Board Roles & Responsibilities to identify ways your organization’s board can ask and answer the questions that enable it to assess itself and increase the organization’s impact.
Facilitator: Keith Timko, Support Center, Executive Director

– What Goes On In Our Board, Stays In Our Board: Playing Your Best Inside Game Hands-off boards are only fun until someone takes an eye out… or an organization goes into crisis mode because of fraud, mismanagement, or from a more mundane but just as lethal lack of planning and evaluation. This session will provide insight and tools boards can use to plan and lead ethically, financially and legally responsible organizations.
