Board Development
An organization’s board of directors is a valuable and irreplaceable component for ensuring that it is prepared and able to deliver measurable results to the clients it serves. Accreditation Guru is here to support your organization to Prepare for Greatness™!
Some questions to ask when examining the strength of your board:
- Is your board of directors reviewing their performance every few years, if not annually?
- Are you assessing your board’s composition in terms of areas of expertise, connections, experience, diversity and inclusion?
- Are they up to date on best practices, governance, expectations of donors, and the new Form 990 and IRS guidelines?
- Are they operating as a cohesive and effective governing body?
To be effective, a board of directors must be an organized, well-functioning, engaged group of experienced individuals dedicated to guiding an organization to effectively fulfill its overall mission:
