The
Strategic Board:
The step-by-step Guide to High Impact Governance
by
Mark Light
Every
nonprofit board wants to be great. But the reality is, few are.
It's one of the few puzzles of governance. How do you mold highly
talented individuals with diverse backgrounds, limited time, and
no governance expertise into an effective board?
The Strategic Board provides the answer. Drawing on more
than twenty years of nonprofit experience, Mark Light outlines
a practical model that overcomes the built in deficiencies of
nonprofit boards and guides them to strategic effectiveness. The
Strategic Board™ model of governance is a step-by-step, easy-to-implement,
multilevel course of action that enables a board to craft a comprehensive
Governance Plan™ that:
-
Develops a Leadership Plan that determines
"Where to go tomorrow?"
-
Creates a Delegation Plan that specifies
"Who does what?"
- Follows
through with a Management Plan that decides
"What gets done today?"
- Puts
in place a Vigilance Plan to answer the question
"Did it happen?"
The
Strategic Board approach doesn't dictate the answers. Rather,
it makes sure you ask all the right questions as you outline your
goals and focus on achieving them. It's a uniquely flexible blueprint
for better functioning that will at last connect your board's
work about where you go tomorrow with your staff's work on what
gets done today.
Every
nonprofit board dreams of greatness. Here are the tools to achieve
it.
