How to Run a Board Meeting

Do your board meetings take two hours? Do you feel like nothing is ever accomplished? Are you finding that you are not even sure what to talk about at your meetings?

If this is you, you ain't alone.

So in this video I go over the structure of a basic meeting agenda. This will help guide you through your meeting and lead to more efficiency and accomplishment.

We are just beginning our nonprofit journey. I am so grateful for this video! Thank you!

Excellent Job. One comment you repeated a few times made me laugh. The part about having a good chair or leader goes a long way. The opposite is also very true. When the leader is not on the ball it makes the whole process rather difficult to be efficient or even productive. But that is the nature of volunteering in many cases. Thanks again!

Thanks so much. I am doing my first non profit board meeting in November as the secretary and this was very helpful :)

Please clarify if the people in attendance can comment and make motions. Air one point It sounds like anyone could comment, ask questions, and make motions, then at the end you said ‘if there are no others comments from the board.

Great video and presentation "tell them what you are going to tell them - tell them - then tell them what you told them"!

What about member meetings? If there is not a quorum, then can we stop taking meeting minutes?

So who head's the board meeting and yearly home owners meeting??? We have a president who is not reachable or transparent?

Thank you for the great information. Your links are non-secure and we cannot open them due to massive cybersecurity attacks. Can you make the site secure?

Thank you very much for the great info. for a new nonprofit, the President/chair can also be a Board member? Or when a Board member is appointed as a President, he/she loses his Board title? Please give some info. on Executive Directors and Board Present and or....officers. Thank you.

hello and thank you so much for your answer, which leads me to another question: in the case that some members of the board, including the president, are subordinates, and in some cases volunteers to the organization under the supervision of the E.D. the members of the board that are not, can request a change of members due to conflict of interest? do they have to be a majority to be able to vote for this process? thank you so much in advance for your time and help.
