The spread of the disease makes it more difficult for nonprofits to garner community support and operate. Many are currently relying on remote meetings to make crucial decisions and ensure their survival. It can be challenging to run a remote board meeting efficiently without the physical presence of every member.

A clear, specific agenda will help keep the board meeting remote on track and focused. Include your board in the process of establishing the agenda. This will help you determine what topics to cover. Then, send the agenda as far in advance to all attendees so that they can prepare. This will ensure that they are fully aware of the topics to be covered and can add anything to the agenda before hand. Utilizing a secure board portal for the distribution of agenda items and other documents can help reduce security risks.

Video can boost engagement during remote board meetings because it adds the essential face-to-face component to discussions. In addition the video allows for attendees to see other people’s body language and note non-verbal cues like boredom, impatience or excitement.

Meeting in person may be difficult to schedule for busy boards that have to manage multiple personal and professional commitments. With remote board meeting software, finding an acceptable time for all participants can be much simpler. SavvyCal’s free polls for meetings allow you to propose multiple times for your meetings, and let everyone decide on the best times for them. This will save time and effort by removing the need to send back and forth emails.
