Join us in Houston for the final event of the Nonprofit Essentials Series. Start the evening with a reception and light refreshments, connect with peers and presenters, and then hear from our panel of nonprofit leaders. A strong development plan and an engaged board can shape the future of your organization. In this panel discussion, experienced nonprofit leaders will share high-level insights on how to think strategically about funding and work effectively with your board. Panelists will explore how to set realistic goals, build development efforts that support your mission, and establish clear expectations for board participation in leadership and governance. In addition, gain strategies for engaging board members in meaningful ways that support your organization’s growth and long-term sustainability. Moderated by Erin Rodgers.
