Board / Executive Director Relations

Board / Executive Director Relations

How should your board and executive director work smoothly together? Keeping this relationship clear and productive is one of the biggest challenges facing many nonprofit organizations. 

Stonehill understands the best way to maximize board and executive director effectiveness. We help you establish an environment that fosters open communication, accountability and cooperation between your board and executive director. 

Boards work best when they focus on setting governance policy and strategy, rather than on management and administration. Stonehill provides guidance on ways to distinguish between shaping policy and hands-on management. We help the executive director and board members clarify the board’s role and strengthen its organizational capacity.
