The Event Leadership Puzzle & Back To Board Basics

From the Association of Fundraising Professionals' NYC Fundraising Day in June, our panel solved the puzzle for honorees, chairs, hosts and committees, from goal setting and recruitment to motivation and thanks. I was with Sheila Kelly, vice president of development at The Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson's Research; Pamela Mohr, executive director of FACES at NYU Langone Medical Center; and Wendy Kleinman, president of WK Planning.

Gene Takagi, our legal contributor is back. This month we're talking about who belongs on your board and for how long. Should your CEO be on the board? Is it OK if your CEO chairs? How about other employees? Should you have term limits? Gene is principal of the Nonprofit & Exempt Organizations law group (NEO). This segment with Gene has a survey. Please take a moment to answer four questions. You'll find it below. Thank you! If you could also share it with other nonprofit professionals, I would appreciate it.
