Aus dem Klappentext

Nonprofit boards must rethink their roles if they are to thrive in today's uncertain environment. In Transformational Boards, Byron L. Tweeten goes beyond telling what it takes to be a good board member to explain how boards today must become fully engaged if they are to face the intense forces of change that will affect most nonprofit organizations.
This vital resource is specifically designed to help nonprofit boards lead their organizations through times of change and transformation. Step by step, Tweeten guides readers through the process of setting a core agenda that both preserves a nonprofit's mission and is responsive to changes and trends in the organization and the external environment. Using the action steps outlined in the book, a board can develop the flexibility to move freely around this center, adapting to change while maintaining its organization's primary mission. The author's model focuses on creating a framework for board engagement that can support ongoing change-offering a practical and flexible approach.
Byron Tweeten details the key issues that fully engaged boards must address in order to provide optimal leadership for organizations. He examines ways to effectively recruit both board members and senior management, techniques for building on relationships to position and market an organization, and a range of resource solutions-including fundraising, process redesign, enterprise development, collaboration, and stewardship-to develop revenues for organizations that can no longer depend on one resource to support their missions. And Tweeten emphasizes the need for performance evaluation in order to keep board members and management on track toward reaching their objectives.
