Board Development and Governance

An involved and progressive Board of Directors is an absolute must for any organization, be it a community, trade association, education, or philanthropy group, seeking to make a positive social impact.

Millennia provides comprehensive board development training services that are customized to each organization’s needs. Our services include:

• Comprehensive board policy review
• On-site and online board development training
• Planning and facilitating board development retreats
• Board development coaching and consulting

Too often, such developmental activities take a back seat to other pressing organizational concerns.

Yet good governance requires an investment of time and effort, to ensure that board members have a shared understanding of their roles and responsibilities, including legal and fiduciary obligations, and the tools to implement them.

Our training seminars frequently address these issues, with topics such as:

• Understanding the role of nonprofit governance
• Best practices update
• Recruiting, vetting, orienting, and mentoring new board members
• The board-executive relationship
• Ethics and fiduciary responsibilities
• Understanding the balance sheet
