I am here to offer some additional perspective on additional responsibilities that will be essential for strong boards and board members moving forward. Redefine and focus on board engagement

It's interesting to know how you'd be a board member that delivers quality results for their nonprofit. Last week, my brother said he wanted to do something to help our community, so he's looking into becoming part of a nonprofit, and I believe your article could provide great tips to him. Thank you for explaining how board members must be engaged with their cause and help solve issues. Comments are closed.
