Gr. Haverhill Chamber partners with Enterprise Bank to Provide Board Development Seminar

The Greater Haverhill Chamber of Commerce, in partnership with Enterprise Bank Non-Profit Collaborative, will deliver an engaging seminar for local businesses and non-profits focused on Board Development. Every non-profit organization needs a Board of Directors to run, and many local executives make up those entities. Understanding how to find the best board members, and orient them to the needs of the organization are critical to effective leadership. This seminar will provide needed insight.

The workshop, “Non-Profit Board Governance and Development,” will be presented by Michael Gallagher, Risk Management Director, SVP with Enterprise Bank, on Tuesday November 10, 2015 at the Chamber offices. The morning will include a light breakfast, with registration beginning at 8:00 AM. Gallagher will cover: steps that your Board can follow to create a stronger and more engaged Board. Among other topics at this session, we will cover; recruiting and retaining qualified directors, structuring an effective Board meeting, making the best use of Board Committees, and director responsibility.

One of the greatest assets that a non-profit should have is a strong, energetic, and committed Board of Directors. For this reason, all non-profit organizations are encouraged to send their board members and staff to this highly valuable session. Don’t miss this opportunity to invest in the future well-being of your organization!

The presentation begins at 8:30 AM and will conclude at 10:30 AM. As part of the non-profit collaborative, this event is FREE for anyone who would like to attend. Seating is limited, and RSVP is required. Seats may be reserved by contacting Beverly Donovan at the Chamber office at 978-373-5663 or Beverly@haverhillchamber.com or register online by following this link.
