Within the past decade the Tabor School of Business has positioned the Center for Entrepreneurship as our laboratory for professional development of our students.  This laboratory concept meaningfully engages our students in activities that focus on the development of their skills in finance, marketing, information systems, accounting and management. Entrepreneurship connects our student's learning to the exploration of ways in which individuals and teams identify and exploit opportunities, develop successful innovations, build new ventures and achieve sustainable growth.  The Tabor School's Center for Entrepreneurship exists to fuel the entrepreneurial spirit that is needed by the global marketplace.

 Description:
A community not-for-profit organization receives its direction from the community through a Governing Board of Directors. This workshop will provide an opportunity to better understand how to make effective use of that Board of Directors.  

The workshop, a series of two sessions, will cover attributes and activities of an effective Board of Directors, recommendations for successfully implementing a Board, and will describe how a Director can maximize his or her participation and contribution. During the seminar series, participants will develop and refine drafts of governing policies for their boards.   

Suggested attendees include Board members, organization Executive Directors, and prospective director candidates.
