Thinking About Joining a Board?

By Marion Conway on May 19, 2011

I recently gave this presentation entitled “Being on a Board: What’s It All About?” at the Grant Professionals MidAtlantic Conference and I am sharing the slides with you here.  I was asked to give this presentation because many grant professionals get asked to be on a Board and some would like to be on a Board for professional development.

Being on a Board is a serious responsibility and commitment and should be considered thoughtfully.  It also can be a major personal growth experience and be an important career enhancing experience.  The slides are posted on slideshare for downloading and you can view them here.
