Champions for Change:

How to Orchestrate Strategic Level Transformations

With Susan Meier

In today’s nonprofit environment, Boards need to think and act differently if they are to keep their organizations viable and propel them to the next level.  Gone are the days of passive stewardship!  Boards need to be more proactive and highly intentional in leading strategic level change – such as re-shaping their mission, creating a bolder strategic framework, enlarging or narrowing their area of service, merging with a like organization, rebuilding the board or changing the board structure.  Susan Meier will share BoardSource’s latest thinking on why boards need to change and how they can create that change, using specific examples of successful practices and transformations.  She will also present a series of concrete action steps that boards can take now to govern more effectively.

Staff/Board teams from your organization will particularly benefit from this engaging session with one of the nation’s leading experts.
