If your nonprofit evokes an emotional, intellectual or transactional response, it already has a brand. But, is it the one you want? Could it be more authentic? More recognizable? Or, become even more seared into the hearts, minds and purses of the audiences you want to reach? More importantly: Does your staff, board, community and other stakeholders know and embrace your brand?

Participants will learn to identify common pitfalls that undermine board effectiveness, and develop an understanding of successful ways to work together with staff. We’ll look at roles and responsibilities of boards and staff, good communications, clear work plans, and how to deal with common disruptions.
