"Rounding Third Leadership Series #21: Director Leadership in Crisis"

The COVID-19 crisis has been a “once-in-a-life-time” experience for everyone, including directors of non-profit organizations, large and small.  I have had the privilege, as a director of three very different non-profits, to observe how several non-profit organizations have reacted to the crisis from various governing board perspectives.  I have also had the fortune of working with a wonderful fellow board member on a presentation on this subject for other non-profit board members.  Many thanks to Larry Berger, former General Counsel to The Philadelphia Museum of Art and, before that, a partner with the law firm of Morgan Lewis for his help.  Our presentation on behalf of Philadelphia Youth Sports Collaborative covers the role of non-profit directors in addressing crises from legal, financial, practical and experiential perspectives.  A link to our presentation is HERE
