About the CLE: "Maximizing the Nonprofit Board Member Experience"

(1 Credit, Substantive)

At the core of successful nonprofits is a high-performing board of directors. These boards serve the organization's mission and act as stewards of its resources and architects of its strategic direction. Effective boards provide crucial oversight, guidance, and support to advance the organization's mission, vision, values, and strategic goals. Key to this success is clarity around the roles and responsibilities of board members, and an understanding of the expectations of board service.

Presenter Elizabeth Vibber, M.S., Co-Director of the Catalyst Center for Nonprofit Management, has 30+ years’ experience providing strategic consultation to both the public and private sectors. Her projects have included the development of business and strategic plans, governance consulting, mergers and collaborations, needs assessments, survey design, succession planning and executive searches. During this interactive workshop, we will discuss best practices from both the organizational and individual perspectives.

Reception & awards

Cocktails and networking will follow the CLE, along with the presentation of the Keystone Pro Bono Awards and the President's Volunteer Service Awards.
