GOVERNANCE TRAINING AND SUPPORT

Governance Training & Support

Board performance is widely recognized as a critical ingredient in a nonprofit organizations ability to achieve impact. Many independent school boards have the passion for organization, but many are doing this volunteer job for the very first time. Many boards do not truly understand what effective board performance looks like and how their board can become more effective.

Research shows that there’s a direct correlation between effective board performance and long longevity in school leadership. This combination leads to a very successful independent school organization. On the contrary, when these two leadership groups don’t work well together issues often happen within the school environment.

Several RG175 consultants have extensive experience in working with very effective board of trustees and training boards to become even better. Two of our consultants have been certified by Boardsource, the globally recognized leader in nonprofit governance and leadership and a go -to resource for nonprofit board and executive leaders.

RG175 consultants work with boards typically in a retreat format or an extended meeting format to provide extensive training on the best practices of independent school boards. This usually involves a 2-to-3-hour presentation and slide deck with discussion and questions answered. In addition, RG175 can provide additional training for boards that often uses case studies as a working model to enhance and improve upon board performance.
