The board meeting is the hospice’s main forum for strategic decision making and the place where the board delivers as a high performing team. Good board meetings have appropriate content and enable all participants to contribute effectively, making the most of their experience and skills.
The effectiveness of the board is to a great degree dependent on the effectiveness of the meeting.
This guide reflects good governance principles in explaining the steps involved in effective board meetings, and includes an example of a board calendar, a board observation framework and a sample hospice board strategy away day.
