Virtual Workshop – Live/Online
Fee: $50 for MCN members / $70 for nonmembers
This session is also one part of the four-part Board Member’s Guide to Good Governance series.
Being a new or prospective member of a board member can be both exciting and challenging. You may be driven to make a difference, lend your skills to a great organization, support the community, or be a voice for the underrepresented. Whatever your reasons, the rewards, and challenges of venturing into a new role parallels other significant transitions in your life. Understanding our behaviors, challenges, and success patterns in other aspects of our life provides a road map to be successful in new and unfamiliar endeavors. This interactive workshop will provide attendees with opportunities to reflect, develop success strategies and provide resources for being successful as a new or prospective board member.
