If you've ever heard the phrase "Bored Board Meeting" then you will want
to save the date for this year's Especially for Nonprofit Organizations'
(ENPO) Annual Conference scheduled for Thursday, September 27, 2007. The
conference will be hosted by one of the program funding partners Capital
One at their West Creek Campus Town Center from 8:30-1pm. Registration
begins at 7:30am. Breakfast and lunch will be served.

The topic "Governance as Leadership" is especially pertinent for
executives and board members. William P. Ryan, author of critically
acclaimed Governance as Leadership: Reframing the Work of the Nonprofit
Board, is the keynote speaker. Ryan will address the practice
of "governance as leadership" and how the generative process offers
board
members more meaningful and consequential work -- and nonprofit
organizations the benefits of an engaged, value-adding board.
