The Bartlesville Community Foundation, in partnership with the Oklahoma Center for Nonprofits, will be presenting “10 Best Practices for Best Board Performance” on Thursday, April 20th from 10 am to 1 pm at the Bartlesville Public Library. Lunch is provided.
In just three hours, you will walk away with tips, sample policies and templates, advice and the confidence you need to make your board a valuable asset to your mission, your organization and your staff. The workshop will demonstrate practices that can be implemented to ensure high-performing board members, including how to best “on board” new board members and utilize board self-assessments. It will also discuss ways to use committees to support board work. The workshop seeks to help attendees institute a culture of accountability through board expectation commitments.
