Speaking from the viewpoint of an active board member, Dr. Emily Richardson shares what makes the Nanubhai Education Foundation board function so well. Their board members and staff are committed to staying connected to their mission and the diverse perspectives present on their board make their discussion robust. Nanubhai changed their program offerings in the past five years and it was neat to hear how Emily felt integral to that process. To see the show notes, visit: www.nonprofitoptimist.com.
