Title
COVID-19: Ask the Experts - Board Members: How You Can and Should Step Up Now
Subject Matter Expert
Andy Robinson, Principal, Andy Robinson Consulting
In the face of massive uncertainty as a result of COVID-19, nonprofit board members may not know how to respond. Some go into emergency mode, while others tend to disappear. Neither move is your best move.
Join us for a spirited, provocative conversation about board governance in the age of COVID-19. We will cover:
- How the board can best support staff
- Using remote technology to deepen board engagement
- How to raise more money now -- and how to better involve your board
- Tools for prioritizing and protecting core programs
- The board's role in building partnerships to help you become stronger
This is an interactive webinar -- yes, that's possible -- so bring your questions, concerns, and ideas.
Send your questions or comments on this topic ahead of the session to [email protected].
*Space is limited to 500 participants. Please note that a recording of this webinar will be made available on NAO's webinar page for later viewing.
