Getting a Grip on Good Governance – Use Our Dashboard

A well-organized board is essential for the functioning of a foundation or association. With the Dashboard for boards, you get an immediate overview of tasks, roles, and responsibilities within your organization. Whether you are just starting out or have been active in governance for some time: we help you gain insight and create structure step by step, free of charge. Read on for more information.

Governing a volunteer organization is multifaceted and can sometimes be overwhelming. There is a lot coming at you: from finances to mission and vision, from task distribution to strengthening societal impact, and from recruitment to laws and regulations. This work often happens alongside other obligations, which means the focus is mainly on the short term: the next activity, grant application, or board meeting.

Do you recognize this?

• There are many different topics that you as a board have to deal with.

• There is little time to focus on the long term.

• Themes and to-do’s sometimes remain at the bottom of the list.

• Not everyone knows exactly their role and responsibilities.

• There is often a feeling of shortage: too little time, money, or people.

It is precisely in these situations that having an overview is essential. With the Dashboard, you can easily create structure, set priorities, and distribute tasks, so that you not only secure the day-to-day running of the organization, but also build toward the organization of tomorrow.

Structure, Overview and Depth with the Dashboard

The Dashboard with guide has been specially developed to support boards. It helps with:

• Creating structure in tasks and responsibilities

• Gaining an overview of current and future topics

• Deepening understanding of various board roles and themes

The accompanying guide offers practical tools and background information per theme. This way, you don’t overlook anything, you stay on course together, and you strengthen the societal impact of your organization. The Dashboard and guide have been specially developed for Amsterdam-based boards, but the insights are broadly applicable.
