Finding the Right Board Members for Your Organization
This is not just a list to maintain and review once a year when you vote on new board members. This is a list to regularly review and prioritize with your board and staff leadership. Just like your best prospective donors, plan to connect with and have conversations with your best prospective board members on a regular basis. You will deepen their connection to your organization, and you will also discern their receptivity to an invitation to serve on your board.
