Join us on Saturday, March 20, 2010 at this conference designed to develop the leadership skills of attendees, whether they are new to the boardroom or an experienced board member.
The Board Boot Camp program has been designed for both new and experienced board members to learn or refresh their skills on being an effective nonprofit board member. This does not happen by accident, but rather by thoughtful and consistent attention to the role of board members in your organization.
We focus on skills effective board members possess. By structuring the morning into two tracks, we are able to direct the discussion at the appropriate level for each group.
Freshman Track ~ for individuals who have served for less than two years on a nonprofit board and are interested in learning about the more general duties of board members. Strategic planning, fundraising responsibilities and financial fitness.
Advanced Track ~ for individuals who have experience serving for many years or on a variety of boards and are looking to gain insight on the tools used by more mature boards. Strategic planning, finances & data capacity building and leadership development.
Cost: $35 first board member, $10 each additional board member from the same organization. Registration includes a copy of Ten Basic Responsibilitied of Nonprofit Boards (1 per organization)
