Hi, everyone -- I'm so excited to be offering a 4-week online course for nonprofit executive directors and senior leadership staff about working with and for your board of trustees! I hope you'll join me at Museum Study starting Monday, August 3rd. Is your relationship with your board collaborative, contentious, or non-existent? Does your board drift between non-management and micromanagement? Do you intellectually or emotionally check out of the relationship due to lack of time or commitment? I've designed this course for you, covering roles and responsibilities, assessing the board-staff relationship, and putting strategic and integrative thinking to work at board and committee meetings, among other topics. Each week will include readings and assignments and an optional Zoom gathering to explore topics in more depth and problem-solve your CEO-board challenges!
