Program Committee Needs Your Input!

The Program Committee has confirmed Teri Goodall Komar to facilitate a discussion for the March 10 meeting called "Enhancing Executive Skills and Techniques in the Executive Board Relationship." Teri's bio is below. The Committee would like to solicit real life situations or circumstances from from the Group's members on where you might have struggled with how to approach or resolve a specific situation. Examples could be:
  • We have great difficulty in getting a quorum at our board meetings. What can I do as the Executive to get a quorum so that critical decisions can be made in a legal and appropriate manner?
  • Mr. X has been on the board for decades. He is a wonderful gentleman but constantly objects to any new programs and ideas. What can I do as the executive to get him to focus on the future, or at least the present, rather than the past?
  • How do I get our nominations committee to actively work at attracting new (and qualified) members for the Board?
  • How do I motivate my board to understand their role and help with fundraising?

E-mail your ideas to Bob Hanye or post them here.

The March 10th program will be hosted by the Jewish Community Center.
