In-Person – Buffalo & Erie County Central Library Collections Gallery Conference Room | Thursday April 11, 2024 | 9 am – 1 pm

Whether you’re a one-person shop or multi-million dollar operation, you’re only as good as your board. Non-profit boards set strategy, open doors and help you do your best work. At least, that’s what they should be doing…

So what’s getting in the way? Let’s look past the frustration felt by so many executive directors (and board members!) and find tangible solutions to your biggest board problem: engagement. In this workshop, we’ll show you the basic tools every staff member needs to better manage their board. Engage your board as a partner and let’s see just how far your organization can go!

While participation in this workshop is free, we do ask for a $25 deposit, which will be refunded upon attendance or if cancellation is made with more than 24 hours’ notice. Please note that this workshop is limited to 25 participants. Lunch will be provided.
