Board service in the nonprofit sector offers huge benefits to senior leaders - from making a contribution to a greater mission to building skills in board governance. And yet, many nonprofit leaders, whether board members or executives, do not come into their positions with experience or training in board governance. If you are a nonprofit board director, are seeking a nonprofit board opportunity, or if you are an Executive Director managing a board, this two-part interactive program is designed for you. Through this series, you will:

• Understand the roles and responsibilities of nonprofit board members.
• Gain insight into differentiating operational v. governance decisions.
• Understand the diversity of nonprofits and how to identify the best organizational match based on the mission, maturity, and structure.
• Build board skills on the power of generative questions and best practices in board in effective board structures and continuity.
• Participate in a nonprofit match speed-networking module to meet and learn from nonprofit executives with board openings.

Don't miss out on this chance to elevate your skills and discover potential board matches.
