Flip the Agenda at Your Next Volunteer Board Meeting
How many meetings have you participated in throughout your career? I bet you have several meetings a day.
If you work in a not-for-profit organization, you constantly have meetings with staff, administration, volunteers and/or combinations of these groups. As you move up the leadership ladder, you are given the task of creating agendas for these meetings. Anyone can create an agenda, but making the agenda come alive is another story.
