Event Description: Join Claire Rettie for this final of 4 monthly 'lunch and learn' workshops. This interactive session focuses on Board Accountability Organizational success is a joint responsibility involving the elected stewards and paid staff. Increasingly, funders and donors are looking for non-profit boards to have defined board objectives and articulated accountability measures. This session explores ways to integrate board accountability into established governance practices and on how staff can frame and support this responsibility without absorbing ‘board work’ into operational job descriptions.
