As boards and leaders struggle to focus in the face of the current political, social, and financial landscape, chaos, board meetings can trend toward burnout and defaulting to low-value report outs instead of engaged, strategic conversations. This worksheet will help staff and board co-create ideas to keep boards motivated and focused, and above all, helpful in guiding EDs as they make mission-critical decisions in these turbulent times. Use this worksheet as a reflection tool to develop your Board’s work plan for the following year or use it during board meetings to increase engagement.
This worksheet is a companion to the December 4, 2025 TREC Webinar: Effective Board Meetings in Chaotic Times.
