About this Event
Boards can either accelerate your mission—or quietly hold it back.
Too often, nonprofit boards are built out of urgency instead of intention. Seats get filled, but expectations stay unclear. Passion is present, but engagement is inconsistent. And leaders are left wondering why their board isn't helping move the mission forward.
In this practical Lunch + Learn, Wendy Kidd and Anh Nguyen will walk through how to build a board that doesn't just exist — but actively contributes to growth, visibility, and impact.
You'll learn how to move from reactive recruitment to intentional board building, set clear expectations from day one, and create a culture where board members are engaged, accountable, and aligned with your mission.
Whether you're starting from scratch or re-engaging an existing board, you'll leave with the tools to turn your board into a true leadership and resource engine.
What You'll Walk Away With:
- Fix board challenges at the root — not just manage symptoms
- Get clear on what your board should be doing
- Stop filling seats and start building a strategic board
- Set expectations that drive accountability
- Turn board members into active advocates, not passive participants
Who Should Attend:
- Nonprofit founders and executive directors
- Development and fundraising leaders
- Board members and board chairs
- Business and community leaders interested in serving on boards
- Anyone responsible for strengthening board engagement and effectiveness
