With agreement, a board will attain its greatest potential, and support and empower the organization.
Purpose, roles, goals, and behaviors develop in a linear fashion. Prior to understanding roles, the purpose of the board must be clarified and apparent. In order to develop appropriate goals, boards must understand their role. The behavior of a board is driven by all three – purpose, roles and goals.
If the purpose of a board is misunderstood, not clearly stated, or ignored, board members will assume differing roles to fulfill their idea of purpose. Individualistic and personal roles and goals leads to board inefficiency and dysfunction.
What Makes Us Different?
BOARDynamics coaches boards toward concurrence of their roles, goals and behaviors through professional development. Unlike traditional consultants, we COACH, we don’t direct. We coach boards for the betterment of the organization, instead of simply providing “best practices” and hoping that inertia will lead to change.
