Many nonprofit leaders report a sense of being either risk takers” or “risk averse.” Yet it is unusual for the entire leadership team to share the same level of comfort with highly uncertain outcomes. This webinar will explore the concept of “risk appetite” in a nonprofit organization. Topics to be discussed include: how to engage the board in a conversation about the nonprofit’s appetite for uncertainty, and how to ensure that decision-making at all levels of the organization is in sync with the overall risk appetite defined by the board. Find out how to have a conversation about taking bold risks with a board that clings to the status quo, or how to raise risk issues gracefully in an environment where “anything goes!”
