Board Recruitment Reimagined - Winning Strategies for Any Community

Finding qualified board members and people to serve on committees and boards often feels like searching for a needle in a haystack—today more than ever. But what if changing demographics, younger leaders with different opinions, and your tight-knit community are actually your secret weapons? This dynamic workshop will change your approach to board recruitment by leveraging geographical limits, generational differences and innovative strategies. You can build engaged boards and committees from untapped areas of your community while you provide a best-in-class volunteer opportunity for local leaders.

Key Takeaways:

• Master the art of "reverse recruitment" where potential board members seek you out instead of you chasing them down

• Create sustainable pipeline strategies that ensure you're never scrambling to fill board seats again

• Bridge the generational divide by understanding what motivates Boomers, Gen X, Millennials, and Gen Z to serve—and how to speak their language

• Crack the code on board recruitment using innovative strategies like real estate agent partnerships, newcomer welcome programs, and community foundation collaborations

Perfect for CEOs, executive directors, board chairs, and nonprofit leaders who are tired of recruiting the same five people for every board position. Also applicable to staff of all levels charged with recruiting and leading volunteers as part of their role.
