The Board Chair and Executive relationship is the cornerstone of a strong leadership team. The Nonprofit Center created this opportunity for CEOs and Board Chairs based on years of experience and feedback from leaders. By keeping the numbers low (limited to 10 organizational teams), we can provide an intensive series of learning, planning, and sharing exercises targeting the most important areas for leadership impact.

Facilitated by BoardSource Senior Governance Consultant Jim Schwarz, Nonprofit Center CEO Rena Coughlin, and Laura Steigelman of Florida Training Solutions, the day provides time for lecture, break out discussions, group interactions, and individual team planning. This investment can yield a more effective, collaborative and trusting relationship between the leaders, improving the impact on their organizations.

Agenda:

  • Welcome, Agenda Review, and Level Setting: What Research Says about the Relationship Between CEO & Board Chair
  • The Importance of Trust
  • Communication & Conflict Sytles
  • High Functioning & Engaged Boards
  • Break for Lunch
  • Board Fish Bowl Discussion
