FY24/25 CSIRDU Board Nominations

A nonprofit board's responsibility is to lead and direct the nonprofit. Nonprofit board members naturally develop essential leadership skills. Serving on a nonprofit board is the perfect way to expose yourself to situations that can help develop strategy and forward-thinking. Nonprofit board positions are working positions, which means it is the responsibility of the board members to make decisions that lead and direct the nonprofit. In addition to developing leadership skills, nonprofit board memberships can also help you develop professional skills. While you already have certain professional skills that will be valuable to the nonprofit and your position on the board, you will also have opportunities to serve on different committees within the board. As a result, you'll have the opportunity to learn new professional skills – from finance to marketing, sales, event planning, and human resources – and gain real experience developing them. By serving on a nonprofit board, you can gain or improve your ability to make decisions, think critically, and solve problems as a part of a greater ability to plan strategically for future success. As a result, board members improve their team leadership qualities, communication skills, and the ability to resolve conflicts and build consensus while working with many different board members who come from different backgrounds and different viewpoints.
