Have you ever sat through a board retreat and spent more time watching the clock, daydreaming, and checking texts than listening to the facilitator? Are your board members cringing at the thought of attending another retreat?
Did your last facilitator stand behind a lectern and drone on like a record playing in slow motion? Were they unengaging? Was the content dull and irrelevant? Did the outcomes of the day grow stale and ultimately have little impact on your board?
If you answered "yes" to any of these questions, it's time to find a new facilitator. But how do you choose? Listen in to this checklist of attributes you can use when scouting for the "best" board retreat facilitator.
