Board recruitment discussions usually start with the tired question, "Who do we know?" Instead, let's start with "What are the three most important things for the board to accomplish this year, and what kind of board members do we need in order to do so?" We'll go on to "How do we get names of the right people and how do we approach them?" We'll tackle some difficult questions such as whether and how to recruit people of different races or educational backgrounds, whether to have clients or parents (or other direct beneficiaries) on the board, and whether to have fundraising or donation requirements. We'll also go over some practical pieces such as what questions to ask possible recruits, accelerating the recruitment/approval process, and how to reject candidates. Come with your biggest challenges and your best ideas.
