Institute Description
The Alliance for Children and Families Board Chair/CEO Institute is designed to build and enhance the relationships between Alliance members CEOs and board chairs. Participation is limited to 10 board chair and CEO pairs to ensure an intimate learning environment.
The institute is a valuable opportunity for executives and board chairs to work one-on-one in a focused, small-group setting. Pairs will define their organizations’ key strategic issues and specific needs, while simultaneously learning from the experiences of other organizations.
Attendees of previous institutes have found that this growth opportunity leads to a more cohesive and collaborative relationship between the board chair and CEO, which ultimately benefits the organization’s entire staff and board.
An additional Board Chair/CEO Institute will be held March 10-11 in Tampa, Fla.
Early registration is recommended, as the Alliance Board Chair/CEO Institute typically sells out. Due to high demand, the Alliance does not hold space without payment.
