Sometimes you have to Retreat in order to Advance: Nonprofit Board Retreats

A nonprofit board retreat: what is it, why should you have one, and how would you structure 6+ hours to ensure everyone finds value in the event? I have facilitated nearly 100 retreats over the years, and I believe properly approached, getting everyone in the same room for an entire day can be of great benefit to the organization. Structuring a full day's agenda might sound difficult. But as long as you have your objectives in mind and know what success means for the meeting, it can be easier than you think.
