Board Development

Boards are surprisingly complex organizational groups and need constant nurturing to maintain their effectiveness. Are board members providing needed support with fundraising? Are they offering other necessary expertise? Are members attending meetings, do they seem motivated? Are more board members needed? Are some of the current board members mired in out-of-date views of the organization? 

EMD has helped nonprofits successfully handle all these sensitive issues. Our principals’ experiences on boards and nonprofit staff, coupled with our knowledge of how best-in-class nonprofits function, help our clients work through major, often difficult, board-related decisions.
