Description

In a recent survey, 30% of departing executive directors reported that they were leaving because of their boards of directors.  Do boards have a big part to play in the recent leadership turnover that’s happening across the country?  Sounds like it!  Sometimes boards forget that their CEOs are human beings with feelings and needs and children at home and bills to pay.  How can boards better support their nonprofit leaders?  How can boards set up their new executive directors for success?  In this revealing conversation with Olliette Murry-Drobot of 02 Strategic Partners and Meg Crosby of PeopleCap Advisors, we’ll look at ways that boards can keep their executive directors fed, watered, and happy!

I Was Told There Would Be Snacks: A Nonprofit Podcast, brought to you by Tennessee Nonprofit Network and powered by KUDZUKIAN. On our podcasts, we’ll be spilling the 501(c)tea on nonprofit issues that impact your nonprofit organization, questioning tired ways nonprofits and funders do business, and shedding light on bold new practices in our field. This is not your average nonprofit podcast! And no, we don’t provide snacks, but feel free to BYO. We were going to get some snacks donated, but the donation application was 42 questions and required too many attachments just to get a few dozen bagels and lukewarm coffee.
