The Board-Executive Relationship: A Partnership that Works

Event Details

Thursday, May 4, 2023
1:00pm-4:00pm PT
Redmond Community Center at Marymoor Village, Room 202
6505 176th Avenue NE
Redmond, WA 98052

No relationship is more important to the health of your nonprofit than the one between the board and its executive director. A strong and effective relationship sets the stage for organizational success. Yet, probably no other single relationship is as easily misconstrued or has such dire potential consequences. Many boards and executives cannot say with certainty whether they have a good relationship with each other, or even what that relationship should look like.

In this workshop, participants will learn:

  • the characteristics of an effective partnership
  • positive ways to strengthen the board-executive relationship
  • how to handle conflict between the board and executive
  • promote transparency and accountability.

Light snacks will be provided.
