Board of Directors
The board of directors of a nonprofit has the power to make all strategic decisions for the organization, even if board members serve temporary terms and a long-time executive director manages the business affairs of the organization. Boards steer nonprofit organizations, which means they must ensure that its activities fulfill its mission, its finances are handled responsibly and the organization meets all of its legal obligations. Like for-profit executive managers, nonprofit board members set the strategic direction of their organizations.
As leaders, we are to ensure that the way we present ourselves in person and online is above reproach. If there is a reason for concern about anyone in leadership, it is understood that the rest of the leadership can bring it up and, if needed, asked to step down.
Ephesians 4:1-3 “....Walk-in a manner worthy of the calling to which you have been called, with all humility and gentleness, with patience, bearing with one another in love, eager to maintain the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.”
