Could your Board, Executive Director and organization benefit from Heartbeat’s Governing Essentials Consultation? Let’s find out.

Check all that apply.

• It’s been 3-5 years since our last board training. (If you check this, there’s no need to go further. It’s time to invest
      in professional Board/ED development for your organization.)
• We have a new ED that has not been through board training with us.
• We’re a brand new organization (2 years or less).
• Our Board seems to struggle with our identity, mission or vision.
• Our Board does not like doing fundraising or doesn’t believe it is their responsibility.
• We’re struggling to recruit new board members to join us.
• The ED leaves board meetings feeling discouraged. Board comments leave the impression that the Board wants him/her and the staff to do more with  
      less.
• Our board micro-manages the ED and/or staff.
• Roles between the Board and ED are unclear; the ED functions largely without board oversight.
• Our Board prefers to meet without the ED most of the time.
• We have poor communication between the ED and the Board chair.
• There’s tension between the Board and ED. It feels very Us vs Her/Him.
• We can’t keep an ED for more than a few months or a year or two.
• We would love to do a Strategic Plan.
• We’re looking to grow/expand our services.
• Our PHO has been stagnant for 2 or more years.
• We can’t get everyone together for a board meeting - not everyone is consistent.
• We’ve had a lot of staff/board turnover recently.
• No one wants to be the Board chair.
• We have Board member(s) who dominate the conversation at meetings.
