For ConsultantsDifficult Board Members The spirited discussion about dealing with difficult board members has reminded me of that old advertisement for deodorant soap: “Aren’t you glad you use Dial. . . . Don’t you wish everyone did?” Handling Surprises at Board RetreatsI’m in the midst of planning several consulting jobs this fall, and it occurs to me that planning a board retreat is a lot like strategic planning. Sometimes unexpected circumstances ruin even the best-laid plans. Then the consultant (like an organization) has to think quickly and respond flexibly without losing sight of the ultimate goal—engaging a board meaningfully in its own work. Meet Your BloggerGreetings all guests and supporters of the Global Forum on NGO Governance! I’m honored to take part as a regular contributor to this site. I’m a governance consultant based in Belgrade, Serbia, and Prague, Czech Republic. My activities ranges from facilitation at board meetings to help with strategic planning, self-evaluations, and board orientations—in short, any activity in which NGO boards engage and might need some help. |
