This article looks at the role of not for profits boards in stake holder relations ships. It identified the relationship between Nonprofits board and other stakeholders as a major weakness in the sector. The institute of governance conducted the study with the goal of advancing the importance of having an effective relationship between the board of nonprofits and other stakeholders. It makes to case for boards not to rely on their CEOs recommendations and inputs as their primary source of others stakeholders input and engagement. They stress the importance of boards being more directly engage with other stakeholders other than the CEO. One main point that resonated most with me was their recommendation that boards make stakeholder relations a primary responsibility.
