Your Board
You may sit on a Board or you may be forming a Board for your organization and you are not sure of the processes you need to implement to ensure your Board is effective and practising good due diligence. Your Board meetings may not be run as smoothly and efficiently as you like. You may be loosing Board Members and/or not accomplishing the work that needs to be done at meetings. Meetings may be running long and Board Members are getting frustrated.
We can help you put good processes in place so your Board stays focussed and provides the necessary stewardship for the organization. We are currently helping organizations in the following manner:
- Understanding best practices with respect to Board Governance
- Understanding the roles and responsibilities of the Board vs. Management
- Establishing Board Committees and corresponding Terms of Reference
- Setting agendas that keep you focussed and on task
- Board evaluations
- Board Succession Planning
- Evaluations for the CEO or Executive Director
Janet Salopek is certified in Board Governance and currently sits on the Board of Directors for Tourism Calgary and Youth Link.
Testimonial: Past President and Chair of Calgary Immigrant Women’s Association – Zemeta Chefeke
Janet Salopek is a true professional. She has tremendous expertise and knowledge, particularly in the areas of governance and strategic planning. Janet is thorough, dependable, punctual, and ethical. She is an articulate and accomplished communicator, and a skilled facilitator. Janet immediately grasps the essential aspects of a project and is able to think through their multidimensional aspects quickly and with great clarity. Janet is a visionary and her input has allowed the Board to make sound strategic decisions in the interest of achieving organizational long-term goals. As is abundantly obvious, I am a fan of Janet Salopek's work, but it is not without ample reason. I have had the opportunity to observe her closely in different settings and am impressed.
