A board's job is to govern, but what does that really mean? In this episode, Nancy and Sarah explain what governance means in normal, everyday terms. They name concrete tasks to move board members more deeply into their governing role. When boards are focused on governing, a lot of  common board-related challenges go away-- micromanaging, lack of focus, disinterest, burnout, stalled missions, etc. By the end of this episode, you will know the four buckets of governance and one thing you can do to strengthen how your board can better achieve your mission through good governance.
