A homogeneous board will not be ready to deal effectively with problems due to an inherent near-sightedness.  Diversity on a board breeds varying opinions, approaches, attitudes and solutions.
                --BoardSource

The potential for management and board missteps resulting from a homogeneous board is likely to keep your organization perpetually off balance and out of touch. Moving beyond your comfort zone and recruiting a diverse mix of board members can result in more thorough and well-rounded decision making, community awareness and investment, and transparent and dedicated service to constituents.

At this workshop we’ll address:

    •    How to refresh and re-imagine your recruitment and orientation process
    •    Tips for more effective relationship building
    •    How diversity is specific to your institution
    •    Avoiding tokenism
    •    Key steps in expanding your search

Refreshments provided.
