Description
The library's director is undoubtedly the single most important key to its success. An excellent library director works well with the Trustees/library board, the staff, local government, and the community. Nothing will ruin a good board-director working relationship faster than a board micro-managing the director or a director who does not communicate clearly with the board providing them with all the information they need to make good decisions within their prescribed roles. This session will cover helping board members understand respective roles, including the difference between governance and management; onboarding, training, and succession planning; effective communication, and ways to engage the members.
