Board Strategy & Governance Partnership

Talbott Talent partners with organizations that are committed to adopting the gold standard for board lifecycle practices and operations. We provide regular board training, goal monitoring, and ongoing nonprofit leadership collaborative coaching. With our Board Strategy & Governance Partnerships, we meet with your stakeholders, audit current governance practices, and develop an individualized plan to ensure your board has the training and tools it needs to govern effectively. We get your board functioning at its best to work toward your organization’s vision. (annual commitment)

Governance

  • Governance Audit

    Audit and Improvement Plan Development

    Before we can develop a training and consulting plan, we need to know your needs. We will meet with your stakeholders, conduct a document review, and develop an individualized plan to ensure your board has the training and tools it needs to govern effectively.

  • Governance Coaching for CEO & Board President

    up to 4 hours per month

    With the information received from the Governance Audit, we will develop and implement ongoing coaching for your organization’s leadership (typically your CEO and board president) to understand their roles and improve your board operations. Your governance coach serves as a strategy partner and knowledge resource to ensure your board is operating at peak performance!

  • Board Training

    up to 4 half-day in-person trainings or equivalent virtual trainings or a combination (up to 12 hours total)

    To reach your vision, you need to get your board working together and singing the same tune. As part of our Strategy & Governance Partnership focused on getting your board operating at a gold-standard level, we provide ongoing board governance trainings.

Strategy

  • Strategic Plan Project Management

    We take the administrative burden of a Strategic Plan off your plate and make it consumable, actionable, and easy-to-use. We partner with you to make sure your Strategic Plan is administered and stays on track!

  • Quarterly Board Strategic Plan Update Sessions

    As your Strategic Plan’s Project Management lead, we will help you keep your board updated by presenting your Strategic Plan progress on a quarterly basis.
