Board of Directors
Board Training & Retreats
The degree to which a Board of Directors is effective is felt throughout the organization and its community. Whether it is a corporate, non-profit or association Board, it makes no difference. If there are factions, conflicts or just lack of good communication or governance, getting the business of the Board done becomes second priority. Bring in Janelle Brittain to address:
- Governance: Roles & Responsibilities
- A New Board Member Means a New Board Dynamic
- Building Board Cohesion Quickly
- Creating More Open Collaborative Communications
- Techniques to Prevent Toxic Board Meetings
- Balancing Strategic vs. Tactical
- Insightful and Applicable Board Assessments
- Coaching for Effective Chair & CEO Leadership
- How to Run Great Board Meetings that Produce Commitment and Results
“Janelle was dynamic, innovative and committed to bring our Board a new perspective on how we balance prudence with decision making.”
"Janelle Brittain designed a comprehensive and objective board self-evaluation process that provided stimulating questions, confidentiality, and an insightful useful report."
Strategic Planning Retreats
Strategic Planning Retreats provide the once a year opportunity to craft the future of the organization. Unfortunately, they often end up being a theoretical discussion, get off track, have personality clashes or feel unproductive. Make sure your next retreat is productive, by bringing in Janelle Brittain to facilitate the process. She will work with you to design your meeting to produce real results. Then she will ably manage the process during the retreat to assure you advance to your goals of the meeting.
“We were able to discuss and apply the strategies to real situations within our organization.”
"Working with Janelle Brittain was an invaluable experience for Unity on the North Shore's Board of Trustees. Her profound understanding of non-profits, coupled with meticulous preparation tailored to our church's unique circumstances, proved to be a true blessing. Janelle's remarkable ability to attune to the energy in the room enabled her to effortlessly pivot and align with the interests and aspirations of our team. Her Change Style Model is not only enlightening but also engaging, offering practical insights for navigating change with grace. With her help we achieved three ambitious goals during our annual board retreat, fostering stronger bonds among trustees, clarifying roles, and setting strategic initiatives for impactful implementation in 2024."
