Summary
The number one predictor of fundraising success is the amount of giving by the board(s) and their giving is directly related to their satisfaction. Learn why ensuring our boards’ engagement must become a top priority for each institution.
In this session, June Bradham reveals interview results with some of the world’s most sought after board members from three continents. Find out what makes them tick, what makes them happy, and yes, what makes them give. From choosing the best new board members—when you have that luxury—to reenergizing those once-great members whose enthusiasm might be waning, June will surprise you with real-life examples of non-profits which have found renewed success simply by giving board members what they want. You will get practical tips for bringing your leadership’s goals, the institution’s needs, and the board’s wants into AlignMint™: The correct positioning of different leadership components within an institution (i.e. president, governing board, advisory boards, campaign committees) so that each component can perform with maximum effectiveness to achieve the mission of the institution.

What people are saying about TRUTH:
“Having recently attended a TRUTH workshop, I am inspired to offer the St. Tammany Hospital Foundation Board of Trustees the opportunity to excel as a board by concentrating on the nine little things that matter most. I will begin by giving them more time to socialize, making sure that important decisions are made at every meeting, and giving them a chance to bring their skills to the table. We are fortunate that June has taken the time to travel the world to seek out these truths and share them with us!”
–Ms. Charles Ann Strickland, Executive Director
