Good intentions don't hold a board together. Strong governance does. Join Jim Thompson of Tying it Together Consulting for an inside look at the House of Governance™ — a framework that examines seven core domains of governance health. Together, you'll walk through the "rooms" of the house, identify where your governance system is solid, where it's drafty, and where it needs renovation.
By the end of this session, you will be able to:
- Define the board's role — Know where governance ends and management begins.
- Build a culture of accountability — Keep board members engaged, informed, and mission-focused.
- Navigate common board challenges — Spot governance drift early and course-correct with confidence.
- Strengthen board-staff partnership — Foster the communication habits that help boards and EDs work as a team.
This session goes beyond bylaws and board meetings. Discover how decisions get made, how leaders understand their roles, and how the board and executive can stay aligned — so your organization keeps moving forward.
