“What I love most about Ben Mohler’s Non-Profit Board Member Field Guide & Journal is how practical and approachable it is. In less than 40 pages, it gives board members a clear framework to understand their role and plenty of space to reflect on it. This guide makes it easy to stay focused on what matters most, whether you’re onboarding, starting a new fiscal year, or gathering for a retreat. I’d recommend it to every board—having this pocket-sized resource in the hands of members can truly strengthen their impact.”
I may have found a new textbook for my Introduction to Nonprofit Leadership course at Davis & Elkins College! Ben succinctly covers the traditional board duties of care, loyalty, and obedience, but better yet, he explains fiduciary, strategic, and generative governance in down to earth terms. (Really! He even uses a tractor metaphor.) The personal journal is a great tool for board members to exercise self-governance. I highly recommend Non-Profit Board Member Field Guide & Journal for anyone who serves on a board or works for one.
As a board member on a school board and a fundraising professional, I found the Board Member Field Guide to be an invaluable resource. The guide's practical insights and clear strategies have enhanced my understanding of governance and effective decision-making. It streamlined our fundraising efforts, providing innovative techniques tailored to our community's needs. Ben’s expert guidance has empowered me to contribute significantly to our board's mission, fostering collaboration and transparency. I highly recommend this guide to anyone looking to elevate their impact as a board member.
