So why exactly would anyone want to join a board, let alone agree to be the chair?! That\u2019s a lot of time and responsibility for no pay. On today\u2019s podcast, I ask exactly that question to Joe Landau who has been in the big seat himself.<\/p>\n

Board Chair is one of the most important roles at a nonprofit organization, but it isn\u2019t the job for just anyone. Learn about what makes a good chair and how the role fits into the messiness of your organization.<\/p>\n

Joe Landau knows all about that messiness. Joe was once the chair of Immigration Equality. And I think he\u2019s been a chair that\u2019s gotten it right. You can learn an awful lot from his experience.<\/p>\n

When Joe isn\u2019t running a nonprofit board, he\u2019s an award-winning professor at Fordham University Law School. He was once the Assistant Managing Editor of New Republic magazine. Very interesting career.<\/p>\n

This is another episode where you\u2019ll want your pad and pencil. Joe gives an information-packed interview with loads of helpful tips that you can use to enhance your work as a board chair, or to have a better relationship with your board chair. Joe and I talk about everything from how to get there, to how to exit gracefully. Pull up a chair and have a listen.<\/p>\n
