Best-of-Governance-1.jpg

As NPQ has written repeatedly, nonprofit governance is larger than the board of directors but inclusive of it. This reality has come home to roost as communication between stakeholder groups has become easier. In light of the capacity of nonprofits to reimagine their whole governance system, where the board fits has become a major question for the future.

These particular pieces include feature articles on governance practice, newswires that discuss trends in governance or cautionary tales based on current cases (these are usually part of a series), and a webinar. All of these were first published this year but not only are they among many others published in 2015 that are insightful and useful, but NPQ’s archives also include articles published previously that have only gained readership year over year—so if these interest you, look back!
