2017 Board of Governors
Convention & Expo

People who are crazy enough to believe that they can change the world are the ones who do!

NANOE’s Board of Governors will codify for the public a new set of governing practices that empower nonprofits to build capacity. Each working group will be led by a best-practice expert who will facilitate the review and reaction by NANOE Governors to the current submission of guidelines in their present form. Governors will contribute to the development of each guideline providing recommendations to refine, improve, and strengthen new policies that improve nonprofit function.

AT-A-GLANCE AGENDA


IMPORTANT NEWS FOR EXECUTIVES
WHO DON'T GO TO CONFERENCES ANYMORE


Are you the type of executive who doesn’t go to conferences & seminars anymore? You figured out long ago that wasting valuable time on worn-out re-treaded workshop topics wasn’t for you. Or maybe you remember the time you were sitting in a keynote address and realized you should be the one presenting because you knew more about the topic than the special speaker?

The National Association of Nonprofit Organizations & Executives has good news for professionals who know the value of capacity-building are ready for a continuing education challenge worthy of their tenure and experience.

There’s an event coming in 2017 where the “answers” everyone’s seeking won’t come from presenters on a stage but rather...
...they’ll come from leaders just like you!

You’ve been nominated to the prestigious Board of Governors of the National Association of Nonprofit Organizations and Executives and will be honored along with your fellow Governors March 7-8, 2017 in Columbia, SC at annual convention. This 2-day caucus is critical to charity’s future and will rely on your expertise to refine, improve, strengthen and distribute a new set of guidelines that super-charge nonprofit capacity-building.

As you know, “Charity” has been paralyzed by a set of failed “best practices” that turned the Non-Profit Sector into a Non-Growth Sector decades ago. Present day systems were established in the late 1950’s by industry associations that knowingly persist in methodologies detrimental to the general public. In response, the National Association of Nonprofit Organizations & Executives formed a working group of thought-leaders (renowned practitioners, volunteers, academicians and philanthropists from arou) to research and develop a new set of capacity-building “competencies” that empower nonprofits in ways previously thought to be impossible. This esteemed group has completed phase one of their important work and are ready to make an initial submission to you for evaluation.

You’re invited to be the first to review, react and respond to these transformational practices during a 2-day interactive presentation.

Ultimately, your interpretation of this quantitative study combined with your qualitative contribution will be the basis for NANOE’s New Guidelines for Tomorrow’s Nonprofit to be published by fall of 2017. Your professional contribution will be publicly credited to this project as together we ensure the health and future of the charitable sector.

Congratulations! We look forward to spending time with you over the next weeks and months.
