What CEOs aren’t telling their boards.

Description

Every nonprofit CEO holds things they cannot take to their board. Much of it is structural rather than personal. The body you might confide in is the body that hires, evaluates, and fires you. Adam Jeske draws on conversations with more than 416 CEOs, and on a pre-event survey of CEOs in CMA’s network, to look at who CEOs talk to before the hardest decisions, what stops them from asking, and what that costs.

This event is for CEOs only. Members of the CMA CEO Network automatically qualify (although webinar registration is still required). Registration is open to CEOs who are not CEO Network members, but will be subject to us verifying eligibility.

Due to the confidential nature of the content, the webinar won’t be recorded, so you need to be present live to participate. We will circulate some brief summary notes to the registered attendees, and the CEO Network, in a follow-up email, but to view and participate in full, you’ll need to be there live.
