If a strong working relationship between the board and executive director is fundamental to your organization’s success, what does that suggest about the partnership between your board chair and executive director? This session will take a close look at that specific leadership dynamic, and offer ideas for cultivating its success.

Board Chairs Roundtable is a monthly 90-minute online discussion among board members from across North America, offering a deep dive into key elements of nonprofit board governance. Participants pay $30 per session. (Six months of Roundtable fees are included in the Board Chairs Academy tuition to enrich the Academy experience for current participants.)

All Roundtables are sponsored by the Board Chairs Academy.
