NPO CONVERSATION

We invite leaders of nonprofit organizations to join us each quarter for a brown-bag lunch discussion about issues, ideas, and concerns in the nonprofit and philanthropic community.

The meetings are a time for us to “talk shop” and move beyond the usual conversation between foundations and nonprofit organizations.

Join us on  TBD  to talk about:  ENGAGING YOUR BOARD MEMBERS

Note: Originally scheduled for December 10.  We have postponed this NPO Conversation due to a scheduling conflict.  Please check back after January 1 for the new date.                                  

If nonprofit organizations are in a time of transition, it suggests that their boards of directors and governance models are in transition as well.  Or are they?

Join us for a conversation about how you are managing your strategic transitions and the challenges of engaging your board of directors as leaders, critical thinkers, and fundraisers.

• What kind of board do you want?
• Is the traditional nonprofit corporate board model effective?
• How are you cultivating new leadership and shaping your board’s culture?

What do you think?  Bring your ideas and a brown bag lunch to GMA on Tuesday, December 10.   We’ll provide refreshments and dessert.

Please call Susan Haff tel. 617/391-3092 as soon as possible to register.

Note:  The subsequent NPO Conversation is tentatively scheduled for March 12, 2014.
