Executives and board leaders have long understood that nonprofit governing boards come in many varieties and shapes, and that there is no single design that works for all nonprofits. And yet, we’re often told that there is some single best way to organize and operate our board, and that there are best practices that will guarantee board effectiveness. This interactive program presents an opportunity to learn from recent research on boards and governance, explore options for alternative ways of organizing our boards, and share insights with colleagues about ways they have refined their board designs and operations to best serve their communities and constituents.
