Preparing Your Leaders to Serve

We train business leaders in the fundamentals of nonprofit board service.

What We Do

Given the vital role that boards of directors play in a nonprofit organization’s success, ensuring that board members understand the challenges and trends facing the sector is essential.

Our team helps your company’s community-minded leaders understand the fundamental role of the board member, legal responsibilities of the board, and current best practices in nonprofit governance. CNM’s work can include: 

  • Conducting dynamic and insightful board training sessions
  • Hosting ‘board matching’ events with interested nonprofit organizations
  • Developing and guiding social impact possibilities 

Together We Can Achieve

Cultivating knowledgeable and engaged board members is a key objective of every nonprofit organization. Your company can help meet that need, advance your professionals’ civic engagement, and advance the company’s social impact work by equipping your community-minded leaders with the skills and knowledge they need for effective, engaged, and successful board service.
