CEII Strategies for Board Recruitment, Engagement and Empowerment

Offered Dates

​

What to Expect

This workshop addresses the role of boards in advancing the cultural diversity, equity and inclusion efforts of the organization. Content includes strategies for board recruitment, orientation and retention. Additionally, we explore implications and issues related to expected/required financial contributions, various aspects of diversity that are beneficial at the policy making level, and effective methods of ongoing board education and development.

Pre-Work Recommended

Participants are encouraged to bring their matrix for board recruitment and any current board approved policies related to cultural diversity, equity and inclusion.

Who Should Attend?

All current and prospective OGP grantees applying in fall 2018 are welcome to attend. Those that have already attended an “Aligning” or “Deepening” workshop and identified board engagement as a key priority are strongly encouraged to attend; however, attendance at the other workshop is not a pre-requisite for this one. This workshop is intended for individuals who are actively involved in board development and management within their organizations.
