William Klimon Discusses Maximizing Oversight and Managing Governance for Your Nonprofit at New York Nonprofit Media Conference

A board has a basic, legal responsibility to deliver oversight and accountability for the organization. They must ensure that the organization is properly overseeing the resources entrusted to it and following all legal and ethical standards.  The relationship between a nonprofit’s board and its staff is so important that it can make or break an organization. The panel will address how to foster a good, anti-oppressive work environment with a flat management style, while working with a Board to oversee an Executive Director/Founder transition, make the hard calls, shift practices, and do what it takes to get to good governance.
