Session Description:
Many non-profit organizations are facing a crisis of volunteer leadership due to a variety of factors, and senior living is particularly impacted due to the complexity of the field and the lasting impact of the pandemic. A key to retaining and recruiting a best-in-class board is to ensure that the skillsets at the table are used to their fullest potential. In discussions with members of aging services boards across the nation, many say that they have difficulty contributing because they “don’t know the industry”. This is an indication that organizational leadership may not be utilizing their board in a way that taps into the knowledge and experience of members, is helpful to leadership, and ensures the fiduciary responsibilities of the governing body.
In this session, participants will learn about the critical success factors in creating and maintaining a high-quality board, including the role of board process in creating opportunities for input, perspective, and engagement. Topics include the role of strategy and maintaining strategic oversight throughout the year; developing generative discussions to advance strategic thought and utilize board member skillsets; the use of committees to advance work and broader decision-making, and the setting of expectations for board members. Insight from representatives of member organizations, as well as case studies and examples from large and small senior living organizations across the US, will provide practical insight that attendees can use to ensure the continued success of their organization and a productive relationship with their board.
