What better way to start conference season than at the one and only NH Center for Nonprofits Conference & Expo?

Calling all Presidents: If you are now or are about to be President of a nonprofit Board, take a moment to think about your role and what you want to do. Let's talk about it on Feb 15 at this webinar: https://lnkd.in/gH9VKdFd

A board of directors' decisions shape a nonprofit's work and eventual impact. But that doesn't mean board members are always on the same page about how to show up. In fact, without a common foundation a board can actually slow down a nonprofit's progress or veer it away from its mission. That's why it's time for a little Board Brilliance. In this four-part (4-part) virtual learning series, board members and staff leaders will get on the same page about their roles and responsibilities in governance. You'll develop a shared understanding of what effective nonprofit leadership can look like. You'll advance your knowledge of board fundamentals and gain strategies to strengthen your impact. And you'll dive deep into what it means to be a diverse and inclusive board, bringing our communities closer to equity and justice. The first session is coming up on Thursday, April 4 (04/04/24) from 1pm - 2:15pm. Click below to learn more on our website and register today! https://lnkd.in/ePZxKzh8

Our founder, Kimberly O'Neil, digs into this more in this week's e-note edition of Purposed Canvas.
