MAKING MEETINGS WORK
Time: 10:04
Are your Board meetings interesting, relevant, and engaging? Meetings are the key vehicle a Board of Directors uses to lead an organization, so the issues Directors need to discuss and on which they must take action should be every meeting’s focus. It is also important to know what should not be included in a Board packet or discussed at a meeting. Pat Wyzbinski of the Nonprofit Management Fund and Mary Wacker of MB Wacker Associates review the elements of successful Board meetings, including some of the unique responsibilities of the Board Chair.
