Board Refocus: Transitioning From A Working Board To A Governance Board

”Many Boards of charitable organizations are working boards. However, if the board only addresses projects that repeat year after year, then the function of the board is more like being a volunteer staff.... Governing is where the strategic thought process lives. 2” (2 From Capacity Canada)

This transition is one of the toughest areas of growth that many organizations face.

Join us in this 2 hour interactive remote ZOOM session where we will look at the difference between a working Board and a governing board and how to move forward from one to the other as effectively as possible.

Learning objectives include:

● Knowing the characteristics of both board types

● Understanding why some Board members may resist

● Tips on how to keep the board satisfied and engaged
