Working Boards: Defining effective nonprofit governance: "What would we do without our nonprofit boards? Board members are often considered indispensible assets to the organization they represent. They provide guidance and direction, they keep staff on target and on mission, they open doors to their networks and, some would argue, most importantly they help raise much-needed funds.
But how much do we really know about Canadian boards? What makes them tick? What factors promotes effective governance? Thanks to a survey commissioned by Canadian Fundraising & Philanthropy and Altruvest Charitable Services and conducted by Innovative Research Group, we have some answers. The recent report based on the survey findings, Assessing Not-for-profit Boards: Governance Structures and Practices, is enlightening and worth a read as it outlines important issues every ED and board member should be aware of before taking their seat at the boardroom table."
