Popis: This article is taken from a report issued in 2003 by the Nonprofit Practice at McKinsey & Company, entitled "€œThe Dynamic Board: Lessons from High- Performing Non-Profits."€ Does a great nonprofit organization need an exemplary board of directors? If an organization has a visionary leader, a skilled staff, loyal donors, and a substantial endowment, what does the board really add? In our consulting work, we are frequently asked to help assess board performance and identify opportunities for improvement. To get a more precise view of what makes board governance effective, we interviewed the directors or board chairs of thirty-two of the one hundred organizations named as top performers by Worth magazine in 2001.
