Strong governance is the cornerstone of a thriving organization. Both your board and your leadership team play essential roles in ensuring sustainability, advancing your mission, and keeping quality care at the center of all you do. This webinar series is designed to guide you in strengthening that partnership and equipping your organization for the future.
You’ll explore how to recruit and onboard the right board members and how to inspire deeper board engagement in philanthropy and resource development. We’ll also open space for a candid, strategic look at affiliation, recognizing that even if it isn’t on your immediate horizon, it’s a conversation every organization benefits from having before urgency dictates the terms. Finally, we’ll examine the legal implications of AI in aging services, helping you and your board understand both the opportunities and risks that come with emerging technologies.
This series is built for you, your leadership team, and your board. When governance is strong, your organization is positioned to thrive today and in the years ahead.
