Harvard Business Review highlights how strategy so often takes a back seat in nonprofit board discussions. How to ensure that strategy finds its rightful place at the forefront? 🚀 Here are some key takeaways from the article: 1️⃣ Consent Agenda: Start by incorporating strategic discussions into the consent agenda. This streamlined approach can help carve out dedicated time for strategy without overwhelming regular meetings. 2️⃣ Strong Facilitation: Effective facilitation is key. A skilled facilitator can guide discussions, ensuring that strategy remains a focal point in board meetings. 3️⃣ Committees: Better utilization of board committees is essential. Assign specific committees to delve into more routine matters, allowing for more in-depth exploration and decision-making. 4️⃣ Standing Executive Sessions: These sessions offer a designated space for board members to discuss strategy away from staff and others. 🔒 It's important to note that while fiduciary duty is crucial, it doesn't have to overshadow strategy. The author rightly emphasizes that fulfilling this obligation doesn't have to consume an entire regular meeting. Let's commit to balancing our responsibilities and vision for the nonprofit sector. We can ensure that our boards are not just fulfilling their fiduciary duty but also driving the organizations toward their mission with strategic clarity. 💼📈 #NonprofitBoards #Strategy #BoardGovernance #HarvardBusinessReview #Leadership

Stress-Free Sustainability: Guiding Nonprofits to Flourish. Facilitator | Coach | Author | Podcast Host
Here are my tips for building better relationships with your board of directors: -- Nonprofit staff and board relations can be challenging! Many EDs talk about a lack of support or micro-management, and few express the ideal collaborative relationship. However, now this is the perfect time of year to make a change towards collaboration! It is the holiday season, and most people are in a more giving mood or mindset. And you can extend an olive branch to get the wheels of collaboration moving in 2024. 🤗 Send a sincere thank you note expressing gratitude for how your board helped during the past year. 📱 Highlight your board in a social media post and thank them for their time and service to your organization. 👋 Invite your board to one-on-one coffee dates in January and meet at the office so that they can see your work in action. It may be hard to extend grace to another person you’ve had a rocky relationship with. Though someone has to take the first step towards building a better relationship, and you’re a nonprofit leader, hard things are your bread and butter! Maybe the holiday spirit will kick in, and it will be just the reset you need. -- What would you add to this list? Tell me in the comments. -- ⭐FREE resource: Your Ultimate Guide to a Stress-free Year-end Campaign VIP access to resources such as templates, examples, and guides to increase your nonprofit sustainability. #gratitude #conflictresolution #nonprofit #leadership #change
