Great Insight on what a Board Should Really Do, Jun 15 2006
By John Matlock "Gunny" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Great Boards for Small Groups: A 1-Hour Guide to Governing a Growing Nonprofit (Paperback)
I'm on the board of a local non-profit (a community theatre). After reading this book, I realize that I shouldn't be on the board at all. I should be somewhere down the chain of command at an operating level. I don't do the things that boards should do. I'm passing this book up to the chairman of the board with the recommendation that he kick most of the present board members off the board and replace us with people that can provide the kind of direction that a non-profit needs.
This little book only takes about an hour to read, but it is filled with more information than I've gotten in several years of actually being on the board. What he says makes such good sense. I can see that what he says is exactly what we need the board to do. I'm going to press for a change in our organization so that I'll run the theater, but leave the board to people with a different set of skills. I wish I had seen this book a few years ago.

While researching for a new role in my favorite nfp arts board, I found inspiration and guidance on key issues in this brief issue, jam-packed with wisdom and steps to get good conversations going about fundraising, board governance, and the pipeline of leadership. A GREAT FIND!

This book helped us refine our board and is required reading for any new board member. You'll find it most helpful for small non-profits.
