Bottom-Up Board Leadership

This workshop is designed specifically for nonprofit leaders who want to gain additional insights into enhancing the nuanced skills of leading the board from the executive staff role. Managing a boss in a normal business setting and structure can be challenging but managing an entire group of people who serve in the role of the executive leader’s boss is a completely unique and nuanced dynamic. Our workshop is crafted to enhance your leadership skills of the board while focusing on the specialized art of managing up to your organization's ultimate decision makers. We will focus on five key concepts that will help to efficiently execute strategies that enhance and redefine how executives lead their boards as well as build relationships, foster accountability and growth. This workshop combines technical strategies, practical exercises, and real-life examples to help empower participants with the methods and confidence needed to manage and lead their board from the executive staff position.
