Effective and efficient governance of your organization is of utmost importance. Governing, advisory and auxiliary groups are filled with people who want to contribute to the mission of the organization to the best of their ability within the intended purpose of their respective groups. But some of them may not be entirely sure how. Or the structures that support them in making that contribution are not the most effective. Whatever the obstacle to full participation full capacity, I offer coaching and guidance to enhance board and governance skills, policies, procedures, bylaws, structure and more.

As a consultant to the board I will partner with your board to:

  • Ensure the mission drives the plan and the plan inspires stakeholders
  • Set clear expectations and clarify responsibilities
  • Ensure that meetings are meaningful, efficient, and effective
  • Create the foundation for excellent strategic work

Services include:

Board Development – customized enhancement of board effectiveness including board training and professional development; identification, recruitment and orientation; review of policies and procedures; and board retreats.

Bylaw Review – evaluation and recommendations for revision of current bylaws.

Governance Analysis – assessment of board capacity, structure, recruitment, orientation, governance and term limits.
