Sharing Leadership

What makes exceptional organizations exceptional? One of the key ingredients is a constructive partnership between the board chair and the executive director.

This workshop will cover:

  • Key elements of shared leadership
  • How to establish and maintain effective communication
  • Facing and navigating challenges
  • Understanding the difference between Governance and Operations
