2016- 4 CORE Competencies for Governance

Share this:

A strong nonprofit organization demands strong, innovative leadership. Harvard Business School identified four essential governance competencies as: board leadership, strategic stewardship, performance measurement, and financial oversight. This workshop will provide a framework to help you identify some critical issues of concern to board leaders:

• the clarity of your mission
• the need for strategic planning that includes transformative thinking, such as value-added board leadership processes and organizational performance measures
• the value of structuring and managing important alliances
• the necessity for financial sustainability through financial compliance

PCW Annual NonProfit Conference 2021

This year, the Planning Committee realizes that the nonprofit community is isolated and disconnected due to the pandemic. We are planning a lot of opportunities for nonprofit staff, leaders and volunteers to come together virtually! In the video to the right, Marge Smith, founder and chair of PCW, explains how the conference is emphasizing the connections and support that only colleagues can provide.
