Description

Board members shape the public’s perception of our organizations through their actions, reputations and leadership abilities. Members who use their reputation and leverage and successfully fulfill their responsibilities in raising funds help ensure the present and future of our success. Enthusiastic, dedicated and skillful involvement is irreplaceable. Board members may be nervous about fundraising – not because they cannot do it, but because they are unsure how to do it. This webinar will explore tactics and techniques for helping your board members reexamine their roles and responsibilities to they can develop the confidence to evolve from nervous – to excited!

Participants will:

  • Review and discuss the progression of Board member knowledge and skill development
  • Explore the linkage between board and volunteer roles and staff capacity
  • Receive and learn to use a pre and post assessment and planning tool
