Making Better Decisions as a Board: Tools, Tactics & Trust

Tired of board decisions dragging out, going in circles, or being made by just a few voices?

Good governance starts with good decision-making — and that’s a skill every board can learn and strengthen.

Join The NGO Coach, Rochelle Stewart-Allen, for this practical 90-minute online workshop designed for nonprofit boards who want to make clearer, fairer, and more values-based decisions — together.

In this interactive session, you’ll learn:
✅ Four decision-making models (and when to use each)
✅ The difference between consensus and majority rule
✅ How to build transparency and trust around decisions
✅ What to do when there’s disagreement or discomfort
✅ How to document, review and learn from key decisions

You’ll also receive:

• A decision-making toolkit for boards (PDF)

• Replay link (7-day access)

• Bonus: Board decision checklist
