What 5,000 Board Cafe Readers Think About Boards |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
Nonprofit board members felt the best about boards, closely followed by executive directors, giving "grades" of B to B-. Makes us think: Maybe boards ARE doing a good job, but funders and consultants are convincing us we're not? Reminder: let's not forget about being a safety net for the organization (but unless someone falls, who thinks about how good a job the safety net is doing?). The overwhelming majority (80%) of Board Cafe readers are board members, of whom half have no paid connection to any nonprofit. Most of us are on only one board of directors, and 54% of us are board officers (we're a committed bunch). A third (36%) of us are nonprofit executive directors.
