Serving nonprofit organizations dedicated to the arts, education, girls or women's issues.
Board Governance - Boards need to be structured to meet the current and future demands of a rapidly changing world using best practices and procedures. Strategic Planning - Plans should include clear objectives for next 1-5 years coupled with realistic program and financial plans to advance toward the organization's mission. (view recommendation) Organization & Processes - The board and administration need to establish an atmosphere with processes that are transparent, accountable, and flexible.. I am committed to these core principles and bring over 22 years of direct experience leading organizations that report to boards as well as nonprofit consulting to organizations for 10. I have served on the boards of large organizations like TIAA-CREF in New York City and of small ones such as Bay Chamber Concerts in Rockport, Maine. If you need an objective third party to lead a project in one of the areas above, please call or email me. __________________________________________________ January 2010 Article in Woman Around Town __________________________________________________
