How to Improve Nonprofit Board Engagement Without Burning Out Your Team
One of the most common things I hear from Executive Directors and Board Chairs is some version of this: “Our board just isn’t as engaged as it could be.”
On the surface, that sounds like a people problem. It suggests a lack of motivation, commitment, or interest. It often leads organizations to respond in predictable ways – recruit new members, encourage more participation, or bring in a one-time training to “re-energize” the group.
Telling Your Nonprofit’s Story
The stories we tell define our world and shape our realities. This is no less true for nonprofits seeking to engage donors, volunteers, and community members in their cause. By crafting and sharing a compelling narrative about your organization and the impact of its work, you can inspire people to take action and fuel further success.
