Governance Bites: #9 Keeping Board Members Engaged and the Role of the Chair
Governance
Chairs have one of the most demanding jobs in a non-profit. What is realistic and what are the essentials? Can we look again at sharing roles around the board table?
One of the key roles of a chair is to facilitate the board as a group – especially in its core role as group decision-makers. And given participation is the purpose if you are going to bother calling a meeting, how can a chair best facilitate real participation that will energise and enthuse board members, and get the best possible decisions from a diverse group? We will look at some practical tools and frameworks to help make this happen in real world non-profit boards.
Date: 14 November 2023 - 5:00pm to 7:00pm
Facilitator: Garth Nowland-Foreman, from LEAD Centre for Not for Profit Governance and Leadership
