Board Facilitation & Training

We help boards advance to the next level with a suite of assessment tools, trainings, coaching and facilitated planning activities.

In most nonprofits, the greatest under-realized potential lies in the Board of Directors.  They set the strategic direction, oversee the executive leadership and represent the broader base of stakeholders in stewarding the mission.  A group of volunteers with passion for the organization can either raise the effort to new heights or drag it down with confusion, pettiness and apathy.

There is little training and education in how to be a board member or how to work with a board. Focusing on a combination of board advancement and recruitment, Fife Consulting has a long track record of developing engaged, well-connected and well-informed boards. Bring us in to run an assessment on your board.  We’ll produce a report that shows the areas of greatest need.  And if you like, we can help build a plan and assist in addressing those priorities.

Here is a sample of client projects that have included Board Development services:
