BoardEffect Webinar: “E-governance Tour: At the Intersection of Technology and Nonprofit Governance”
Date:
Thu, 12/02/2010 - 8:00pm - 9:00pm
Introduced first in the corporate sector, e-governance -- the conscious, strategic use of online tools to improve governance – is now sweeping the nonprofit world. With the increased level of scrutiny on nonprofit boards, many directors are seeking ways to increase access to and control of information – including meeting materials, policies, by-laws, committee work, and online discussions.
This session, hosted by Australia-based Steven Bowam of ConsciousGovernance is an opportunity for nonprofit board members, staff, and consultants to learn about the e-governance trend and its impact on board engagement, communication, and productivity. Join us to learn the latest research on e-governance and how the framework is easing the burdens of board management and increasing opportunities to achieve mission goals. Participants will leave the session with a clear sense of their board’s readiness to embrace e-governance and how to implement online board tools successfully.
This free educational session – taking place in cities across the U.S.– features Dottie Schindlinger, Vice President of E-governance for BoardEffect, Inc. and co-author of “E-governance is Good Governance: Improving Nonprofit Board Leadership through Online Technology,” chapter 3 of Internet Management for Nonprofits: Strategies, Tools, and Trade Secrets, Wiley & Sons Publishers, April 2010.
The webinar will be followed by an optional 30 minute online tour of BoardEffect—a leading e-governance tool for nonprofit boards of directors.
