The painful truth: Most boards are designed for fundraising, not governance. And organizations pay a heavy price for this:
Poor strategic decisions made by people out of touch with reality
Mission drift toward what wealthy board members think matters
Executive Directors of color isolated and unsupported
Community trust eroded when governance doesn't match values
Talented community leaders excluded from decision-making
