3. IDENTIFY OBJECTIVES.
Adopting an annual plan consisting of agreed-upon projects, issues to be addressed,
and execution processes is crucial for effective operation and continuity. Failing to have
mutual expectations and distinct priorities and objectives among the board, committees,
and management staff can result in confusion, uncertainty, and frustration.
4. MAKE MEETINGS COUNT.
The board and management staff are required to meet regularly to confirm operations
are running smoothly and ensure the community's success. This time is valuable, so it's
essential to take steps to enhance meeting productivity. Come prepared by reviewing
materials beforehand, asking questions, actively participating, and being professional.
It's also important for board members to give management clear direction and avoid
perpetually tabling action items.
