Scenario

When nonprofit boards avoid difficult accountability conversations

Our nonprofit board keeps talking about accountability and transparency, but when it comes to addressing how our executive director handles conflicts with staff, everyone gets quiet and changes the subject. I feel like we're failing in our oversight responsibility but I'm not sure others see it that way.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

The group is struggling to live up to its governance responsibilities when the stakes feel personal and political.
