The Eastside Los Angeles Netsquared would like to invite you to:

"Getting Boards on Board:
How to Facilitate Nonprofit Boards to Engage with Innovative Social
Technologies"

Tuesday, September 27, 2011, 6:30 PM

Location: ACLU Foundation-Southern CA 1313 W 8th St # 200, Los
Angeles, CA (map http://bit.ly/SeptN2LAmap)
You'll need to sign in with the security gaurd and he/she will let you
upstairs. Be sure to RSVP!

Learn about various decisions a board makes such as undertaking a
strategic planning process and discuss ways in which to insert
technology into the discussion. You’ll also explore various low-tech
methods to engage Boards of Directors such as putting an issue on the
board agenda, allowing for time to discussion during a board meeting,
working to build consensus and ultimately making a decision. Practice
what you learn during a mock meeting that Ron Milam will facilitate
followed by a group discussion.

Our speaker and facilitator, Ron Millam, works to transform Southern
California into a sustainable region by developing the leadership of
community-based organizations. Since 2005, Ron has served over 55
nonprofits, businesses and local governments as a facilitator, trainer
and coach. As a Certified Professional Facilitator, Ron has supported
the leadership of numerous organizations to decide their mission,
vision, values, strategies, goals, work plans and/or important policy
decisions. Read more at http://www.ronmilam.com/
