About this title

Synopsis

On Board presents a clear road map to best-practice nonprofit governance and rewarding board service. Too often people are asked to serve on a board without understanding how nonprofit organizations and boards work, what is expected of them and how they can best contribute. Even seasoned board members can lack specific knowledge areas and skills to successfully govern and champion their organization. With On Board, current and prospective board members and staff finally have the information needed to help their organizations thrive:

Key questions to ask before and once you join a board of directors
The powerful functions and inner workings of boards and committees
How to spot red flags and avoid crises
How to get the most from your executive director
How to hire the best executive director for your organization
The vital roles of ambassadors, friendraisers, and fundraisers
Fundamentals of fundraising and effective storytelling
Strategic planning 101…
and much more!

Items on Abe are not necessarily in stock at our retail locations. Please do not call the stores to place orders for Abe Books sales. We have a very active online inventory and as such, we can receive multiple orders for the same item. We fill those orders on a first come first serve basis, but will refund promptly any items that are out of stock. Since 1980 it has always been about the books. ALL kinds of books from 95 cent children's paperbacks to five figure rare and collectibles. A merging of the old and new is where we started, and it is where we are today. Our retail stores have always been places where a reader can rush in looking for a title needed for a term paper that is due the next day, or where bibliophiles can get lost "in the stacks" for as long as they wish. In 2002 USAToday recognized us as "1 of 10 Great Old Bookstores", and we have been featured in numerous other newspaper and TV stories including Washington Post and CSpan. Members ABAA, ILAB.
