| Doing Good Even Better is approachable wisdom, fresh
from the recently retired chair of Habitat for Humanity International.
Edgar Stoesz has fixed his eagle eye on two failings common to may
boards of nonprofit organizations: 1.) Distinguishing their governance
role from the role of management; 2) Boards skimp on two matters: a)
preparation of their members, and b) regular evaluations of their own
effectiveness and focus. In short, pointedly-written chapters,
Stoesz covers: Helping directors understand their governance role; A
plan to fulfill the purpose; Reporting back to the members; Planning
effective meetings; Great boards have a good fight (occasionally);
Working your way through a crisis; Great boards celebrate; and Leaving
right. Stoesz deftly interweaves background philosophy, vision and
razor-sharp specific ideas. "Discussion/Action Questions" conclude
many of the chapters. In addition, Stoesz offers a "Board Evaluation
Form," a "Director's Self-Evaluation Form," and an Outline for the
"Executive Director Annual Review." Copyright
