Join Rose Snyder and Nancy March for a discussion about the essential partnership between board chairs and executive directors/CEOs. The partnership between the nonprofit board chair and executive director is symbiotic, with each role complementing and supporting the other to achieve organizational goals and mission impact. Effective communication, collaboration on strategic priorities, and clear delineation of responsibilities are foundational to a successful partnership that drives organizational success and sustainability.
During this BoardCafe session, participants will be encouraged to share some of the lessons they’ve learned about building and maintaining a strong partnership between these two key leadership roles. We’ll explore their respective roles and responsibilities, the essential elements of their partnership, and the benefits of a strong partnership.
This session is open to anyone on a nonprofit board, leading a board, or staffing a board but it is particularly targeted to board chairs, chairs elect and executive directors/CEOs.
These 90-minute drop-in sessions will provide an open, candid forum addressing the concerns and challenges that the participants bring to the session. All are welcome, including those who are interested in serving on a board but have not had an opportunity to serve in that role previously. Join us for an engaging session!
This meeting will be held via Zoom on Monday, August 26, 2024, from 11:30 AM to 1:00 PM MST.
