BOARD EVOLUTION & EDUCATION
Ready to raise the bar for board performance? At GLP, we go beyond, and even challenge, the conventional advice offered to not-for-profit boards.
If your Board is ready to add and create value in ways that transcend fundraising or technical fiduciary work, we help you take stock of where you are, where you want to go, and how to get there. We offer consultation, practical advice, tools, and approaches so you can continuously evolve your board.
Evolving the board is a process, and while no one board or organization is the same, we’ve identified essential elements of a successful approach and designed new methods for engaging leaders and board members in building an even more effective board—for today and for the future.
We work with you to:
Select, Onboard, and Develop Board Members
We engage, educate, and inspire board members in customized and facilitated education and onboarding sessions grounded in the needs of your organization. We coach you to think strategically, consider how to create and add value, develop talent, and identify the mindsets, skills, and abilities you’ll need to govern for the future.
Diagnose and Design for Board Evolution
GLP has a finely honed process to partner with you to evolve the collective performance of the board. We work with you to assess and redesign board structures and practices. (We call this the “Board Evolution for Adaptive Governance.”) Together, we engage your board in addressing:
Committee structures and charters
Board practices and schedules
Roles and responsibilities of the board and its individual members
Coordination and collaboration among trustees, the board committees, and school leadership
Fair and effective assessment, support, and oversight for the Head of School/CEO and for board performance
Distribution of leadership, and an effective process for trustee recruitment, onboarding development, and succession planning
Agenda design
By-laws
