In this episode of Senior Living Visionaries, hosted by Jennifer Drago, strategy consultant and CEO of Peak to Profit, we delve into the crucial topic of board governance, focusing specifically on board engagement. The discussion begins with an introduction to a valuable free resource available on the Peak to Profit website (www.peaktoprofit.com): the Nonprofit Board Governance Self-Assessment, which helps organizations evaluate their governance processes and identify areas for improvement.
Jennifer outlines ten key practices for enhancing board engagement, starting with an effective board orientation. This includes providing a comprehensive overview of the organization's history, strategic plan, current financial status, and future vision. She also emphasizes the value of mentoring, where a seasoned board member supports and guides a new board member, ensuring they feel comfortable and well-informed.
