Board Development

Board development is a cycle that includes training, recruitment and the often overlooked area of succession planning. The United Way's online board development resource highlights a cycle for effective planning, recruitment and maintenance for organizational governance that includes:

  • Developing a board profile/job descriptions (covered in Board Roles and Responsibilities)
  • Recruiting and selecting new board members
  • Electing board members
  • Providing ongoing support and recognition
  • Providing orientation and training
