Location: Online via Zoom

Learning Track: Leadership & Organizational Development
In today’s dynamic nonprofit environment, effective board recruitment is critical to achieving organizational success. and the board must be an active driver of that work. This workshop is designed to empower executive leaders, board leaders and members with the tools, strategies, and frameworks necessary to build a robust, intentional, and aligned board recruitment program. Including engagement of the full board in identifying, cultivating, and committing the right leaders to the mission. Understanding that almost every organizational initiative can be impacted by the board in some way, the process of training the board is closely related to who is on the board and how the board shows up. Organizational success often starts and ends with the board.
Rooted in the principles of our 10 Steps to Creating a Board Development and Recruitment Program, we will delve into practical reality-based strategies and practices such as:
– Establishing a clear recruitment framework and shared accountability
– Defining the perfect board member profile (skills, passion, commitment, and strategic alignment)
– Building a recruitment timeline and pipeline the board can sustain
– Board member roles in recruitment (before, during, and after outreach)
– Hosting effective individual as well as group or mass recruitment meetings and more.
These concepts are paramount in making sure that every board seat is filled by individuals whose skills, passion, and commitment align with the mission and strategic goals of the organization.
Provider Members attending receive complimentary registration for one Board member!
