Summary

One of the fundamental challenges that nonprofit staff and boards have is that they must provide strategic leadership and planning to set the direction for their organization. Boards with staff input need to provide a guiding framework for ongoing decision-making, planning, and prioritization in a dynamic and unpredictable environment. Nonprofit boards and staff may even consider and cultivate the role of possible partnerships now and into the future to enable their organization to thrive and survive.
