Has the Board of
Directors or Executive Director in your organization ever been frustrated by the
rocky and troublesome relationship with each other? This book identifies key
factors for creating a successful relationship and provides questions that
Boards and Executive Directors can use as a starting point for discussing their
relationship.
In addition to a
comprehensive literature review, Kelly Sloan interviewed seven different
organizations who have a self-described successful relationship. Common themes
emerged that are critical to the success of a relationship: trust and respect,
job functions that support each other, ED/Board Chair strategies, organizational
climate and effectiveness, certain leadership qualities, and emotional
intelligence.
The book contains
practical strategies to implement in these areas as well as a list of resources
relevant to the subject. This book and its findings will be of interest to any
volunteers or staff working in the non-profit sector particularly Executive
Directors and Board of Directors.
