Steps
- 1Map current skills vs strategy needs (finance? legal? community voice?)
- 2Clarify fiduciary vs advisory roles in writing for every member
- 3Design meetings for decisions: consent agendas, pre-reads, one big question
- 4Set explicit give/get expectations asked at recruitment, revisited annually
- 5Run self-assessment yearly with anonymous input
- 6Recruit to gaps with real role descriptions, not warm-body fills
Common Pitfalls
- ▲Boards micromanaging operations while skipping fiduciary duty
- ▲Meeting time consumed by staff reports over decisions
