Description

Board members must understand their roles, as well as the functions and benefits of different board structures and procedures. Well run board meetings are essential to avoid delays in decision making and to support organizational effectiveness.

This workshop provides board members with practical tools to lead and participate in focused discussions, ensure meetings end with clear responsibilities and shared understanding, and embed equity principles in both board structure and day to day operations.

Participants will learn how to prepare for meetings, present information clearly, develop effective agendas, use consent agendas and dashboards, support strong meeting facilitation, and contribute to a productive and equitable board culture.

The session will be led by Mel King Institute's Leadership Development Program Manager, Viana Nascimento, who brings extensive experience as a nonprofit board member, facilitator, and equity practitioner.

 

This webinar will be free for all Local Housing Authority Board members and Community Development Corporation Board members from MACDC member organizations.
