Board Operations & Systems

Project details

What we need
  • Assessment of existing board procedure, policy, set of guidelines, or system
  • Creation of one document outlining one procedure, policy, operations, or set of guidelines, for example: bylaws, board meeting procedure, succession planning guidelines, committee policies, board member orientation handbook, etc.
Additional details

We need a revision to our current bylaws and board meeting procedures.

What we have in place
  • We currently have bylaws, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have committed staff, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $10,298 , allowing us to serve more people who are uninsured and underinsured.

It will help us to clarify organizational and board expectations.

We are extremely pleased with the supportive services that Renuka provided. She went above and beyond to coach our Executive team on board operations, modified our bylaws, and provided more that 20 board operating policies. We can’t say enough positive things about our experience with Renuka. She truly blessed our organization, and we recommend her at the highest level.
