BoardTalks—Peer Learning Groups™

BoardTalks is a unique learning opportunity offered to board members from all types of nonprofit organizations who meet in a confidential and collegial setting to discuss “board best practices” and to solve current organizational problems. The monthly meetings allow time for participants to acquire and practice new skills in order to be the best possible board members. The sessions are fun, spirited and practical! The cohort group meets for three hour sessions on a monthly basis.

BoardTalks™ will be facilitated by Tara Smith, a member of Crux Consulting Consortium. Tara’s teaching and facilitation expertise stem from time in the trenches as an Executive Director, Development Director and Board Member. Having raised money and led teams at both small and large organizations, Tara’s 18-year career has been dedicated to inspiring generosity, developing leaders and connecting people with their communities.​Janet Boguch is thrilled to collaborate with Tara to help share ideas and build board capacity and education through BoardTalks™.

Sessions are at our comfortable Capitol Hill office; accessible, free parking is available; the bus line is at the corner of her office block; bikes are welcome.

In addition to discussing board roles and responsibilities, the board building cycle and current governance trends, specific topics are based on registrants’ requests. Enrollment is limited to 12. Reference materials are provided to help build the board members’ tool boxes.
