So often a board or committee elected for a term of one or two years focuses almost entirely on what they hope to accomplish in that term. They may be aware of the legal duties of a board, for example, and work diligently to meet the obligations of those duties. However, there is a fourth duty- not legally imposed, but critical to the organization. That is the duty to prosper, the duty to assure that the organization will have continued capacity to deliver on the mission even after the board or committee’s term of office is complete. This session will examine the importance of having a vision for the future of the organization and a plan for making that future prosperous.
