Episode Description

Millions of nonprofits do not reach their full potential because greater engagement, support, and vision are needed from their boards.

On Wednesday's show, Dr. G and guests Vic Baker with San Diego Gas & Electric/SoCalGas (an experienced nonprofit board member) and Mike Burns, Board Consultant with BWB Solutions, LLC in Branford, CT will discuss how to effectively engage boards to achieve greater visionary leadership and support from its members.
