If your organization is working toward a more effective board and more efficient communications with board members, how about starting by refining your board meetings?

One board management app that’s worked well for your colleagues in the profession is OnBoard. This centralized meeting platform allows you to simplify and standardize processes before, during and after your meetings. Features include the ability to build minutes and agendas, and upload and share all types of documents, from financial reports to strategic plans. The platform also offers voting and approvals, one-to-one messages and group chats, note taking and follow-up task tracking.

“All of this allows us to work seamlessly with our board,” says Mark Neff, President & CEO of Forsyth Humane Society, “and promotes transparency, accountability and engagement.”

Neff cites the governance and compliance features, which “ensure that we continue to meet legal and regulatory requirements,” as especially valuable. The analytics and reporting features, he shares, “enable us to study and evaluate the strengths, skills and experience each member brings to the table.”
