Building and Engaging a Board of Directors

Clarity is key to getting the most out of your board of directors. What exactly do you want your board to do? Come tackle this question with hands-on exercises designed to unleash the best board ever. You'll discover the traits of your ideal board member, learn to recruit the talented folks you most want, and plan ways to keep them meaningfully engaged. Board meetings can be fun and interesting. It's high time you stretched for the best — and your board did, too. This is a presentation from the 2015 Best Friends National Conference.
