Speaker: Glenda Hicks, Founder & CEO, 501c Impact!

Many orchestra boards have no shortage of people willing to serve. The challenge is finding and engaging the right people: those who understand that board membership is about more than preserving tradition. Great board members bring diverse perspectives, critical thinking, community connections, and a commitment to governance beyond financial contributions. These key leaders can help orchestras stay relevant, sustainable, and responsive to evolving community expectations.

In this highly interactive workshop, you'll unpack a structured nine-step board recruitment framework grounded in nonprofit governance best practices and change management principles. Through peer learning, discussion, and practical exercises, examine assumptions about board service and composition and explore strategies for attracting members whose skills and connections support long-term success.

Leave with practical tools and frameworks to bring back to your board, sparking meaningful conversations about recruitment, board culture, and governance effectiveness.
