Nonprofits often underuse the expertise of their boards because of a general confusion as to the board’s role within the nonprofit and potential influence it may have on the organization’s success. In spring 2009 the Impact Institute will launch a training program for nonprofit board members that will cover the following topics:
-
Determining the Organization’s Mission, Vision and Strategy
-
Selecting, Supporting, and Evaluating the Chief Executive
-
Strategic Restructuring, Mergers, Joint Ventures, and Collaborations
-
Being a Fiduciary: Providing Financial, Legal, and Ethical Oversight
-
Ensuring Adequate Resources to Carry-out the Mission: The Board’s Role
-
Effective Organizational Planning
-
Being an Effective Board and/or Assessing the Board’s Performance
-
Enhancing the Organization’s Public Visibility and Standing
-
Monitoring Programs and Services
This training program will be lead by a team of experts from La Piana Associates of Emeryville, C.A. David La Piana is a leading expert on nonprofit management and governance, and is regular contributor to the national dialogue on nonprofit leadership and foundation effectiveness. David’s latest book was published in March 2008: The Nonprofit Strategy Revolution: Real-Time Strategic Planning in a Rapid Response World. Click here to learn more about La Piana Associates.
