Board Training - Facilitator Guide PLUS CD

 

Board CD Training Booklet"These training presentations are great! It would take me several hours to put ONE of these presentations together, and it wouldn't look this professional! I can't wait to use them with my board and other organizations I work with!" -
Indianapolis-area Health Association
Executive Director


List price is only $55 (plus S&H) and includes a duplicate CD to share with your board chair or board development chair.

Nonprofits across the country have purchased thousands of our booklets over the past four years. The short booklet format makes it easy to buy and pass out to every board member or every member of a committee or task force. Still, you sometimes need to wet the appetite of board members for certain topics or you want to create an interactive learning experience that can engage board members around a specific topic.

This CD has introductory presentations for ALL FOUR of our booklets, plus a bonus - Improving Board Meetings. Each title has been introduced in a professional-looking 12-20 slide PowerPoint(TM) presentation that can be used with your computer and video projector or printed to make overheads and handouts.

In addition, we have included six exercises to help create board discussion and conversation. Both the introductory presentations and the exercises allow you, your board chair, or board development committee to easily incorporate a few moments of board training into your meetings or retreats without hours of preparation.

This is a turn-key training package that you can hand to your Board Chair, Board Development Chair, or a board member who is interested in providing short training sessions during board meetings.

The five presentations and six exercises include:
• Warmup questions and handouts
• Facilitator notes with suggested questions to solicit group interaction
• Presentations - either PowerPoint or to print as overheads
• The facilitator notes assume that your facilitator has a copy of the booklet on which the presentation they are making is based. Ideally, each board member is provided with a copy to read after the presentation.
