Registration OPEN for the 2019 Oregon Heritage Summit!

Register now for the 2019 Oregon Heritage Summit<https://www.oregon.gov/oprd/HCD/OHC/Pages/Conference.aspx> on the Culture of Board Engagement. The 2019 Summit in Medford will dig deeply into the theory and practice of great boards- what a good board looks like, how every board needs to reflect the individual purpose and community it serves, and how organizations can build and sustain a strong board team. More than just listening and learning, this session will provide immediate, practical advice on how to make your board stronger, more resilient, and more effective in your community.

Goals of Summit

  *   Attendees leave with knowledge about board roles, responsibilities, and best practices.
  *   Attendees will gain practical tools and strategies for elevating the practice of their boards
  *   Attendees will leave inspired to implement best practices where possible
