Member-serving association boards maybe especially challenged by their more complex affiliate structuresand a greater emphasis on representative governance. But what doesthe journey to good governance look like? Markedly different fromexisting board development books, this modern approach focuses lesson the behaviors and qualities of "high-performing boards" and moreon the stages and processes that directors and their staff used totransform their boards. Based on research funded by the ASAEFoundation, the book fills a gap in the governance literature byemphasizing diagnosis and problem solving, using the actual toolsand activities implemented by 85 transformed associations.Combining the credibility of scholarly research with lively andcompelling stories, tools, and teachable moments, this book isdesigned to help associations and other nonprofit organizationsachieve the entire journey to good governance, from first to laststeps.
