Some useful documents
- Sample Memorandum of Understanding (Word doc)
- Sample Basic Board Agenda (Word doc)
- Roberts Rules of Order Cheat Sheet (PDF)
- “What’s Your Mission?” Worksheet (Word Doc)
- Sample Executive Director Report (Word) This is one I filed with the board a couple months after starting at City Club of Tacoma in 2009. It’s a template I still follow roughly today: a few paragraphs about a couple big things, and then short bullets about other accomplishments or actions. Seeing this might give you a good sense of the kind of information an ED could share with the board.
- Another Sample Executive Director Report (Word). To show that I still basically use the same format, here’s a sample ED report from my work at the Tahoma Audubon Society as an Interim Executive Director.
