A strong board doesn’t happen by accident. Board Building Action Plan is a practical, hands-on workshop designed to help nonprofit leaders move beyond filling seats and toward building a board that truly advances their mission.

This session cuts through common challenges and provides a clear, realistic approach to identifying, engaging, and recruiting the right board members—those who bring the skills, perspectives, and commitment your organization needs to thrive.

In this workshop, participants will learn how to:
• Define what effective, healthy board governance really looks like
• Assess current board strengths and identify critical gaps
• Align board composition with organizational priorities and future goals
• Create a step-by-step, relationship-based recruitment plan
• Engage board members in meaningful, mission-driven service

You’ll leave with practical tools, fresh clarity, and an actionable plan you can put to work immediately—helping your board become a stronger partner in long-term success.
