“I truly enjoyed today's webinar on Boards and Asking Styles A Roadmap to Success. I learned some amazing things concerning asking styles, your board asking style, leadership, strategic planning and fundraising. These are topics that as a board leader I just hadn't thought of, and didn't think it was important to know but now I know the difference. Especially that individual personalities play a big part in selecting the right board members. I am glad I participated today. Thank”

One of the best webinars ever!”
