CEO and Founder of the Nonprofit Board Academy
Christina Becker has worked for the nonprofit sector for close to 40 years as a manager, consultant, and as a volunteer board member. She is passionate about supporting nonprofit organizations and their boards of directors in excelling in governance.
Over her career, she has seen many organizations struggle with poor financial performance and confusion about what their role was. And as When the Annual General Meeting came around and new board members were elected the same issue resurfaced. It took board members at least 6 months to figure out what was going on, and then their terms were over. In the meantime, they weren’t able to fully participate. Board orientation and training wasn’t embedded in their organizational culture. It was challenging to get these boards to invest money into ensuring that board members were well equipped.
She created the Nonprofit Academy in 2013 to support organizations and developed this online training curriculum and consulting curriculum to support boards to become clearer, more confident, and more purpose-driven by translating governance into practical habits, human dynamics, and better boardroom decisions.
