It is also intended to develop the participant&#8217;s capability to act as an agent for positive change in nonprofit organizations. To this end, you will analyze the leadership and governance effectiveness of a real board of directors in an organization of your own choosing (or, if that is not possible, data gathered from a real board provided by the course instructors). By the end of the Capstone Project, you will have produced a professional consulting report detailing your analysis and recommendations to improve board leadership and governance effectiveness. You will then present it to the board and advise them on implementing change.<\/p>\n<p>To learn more about this course, please watch the overview video by copying and pasting the following link into your web browser: https:\/\/goo.gl\/GTWrN2<\/p>\n<p>Keywords: Nonprofit; Nonprofit Sector; Voluntary Sector; Nonprofit Organizations, Non-Governmental Organizations, Volunteer Organizations, Leadership, Management, Governance, Board, Board of Directors, Performance, Effectiveness<\/p>\n<p>Capstone Project Overview:<\/p>\n<p>Weeks 1-3: This period will be spent choosing a board of a nonprofit organization and gathering information using two specially designed tools and resources: The SUNY Open textbook (to download the book copy and paste the following link into your browser: http:\/\/tinyurl.com\/peolnjb), &#8220;Guidelines for Improving the Effectiveness of Boards of Directors of Nonprofit Organizations&#8221;, and The Board Check-Up, online board performance self-assessment tool that can be accessed by copying and pasting this link into your browser: https:\/\/www.boardcheckup.com. <\/p>\n<p>Weeks 4-5: In this phase, the information gathered will be analyzed leading to an evaluation of the board&#8217;s effectiveness in the different dimensions of board effectiveness examined in the Specialization courses. <\/p>\n<p>Weeks 6-8: In the final phase of the Project, the results of the analysis and recommendations for positive change will be brought together a specially prepared consulting report intended for the use of the board of the client organization.<\/p>\n<div style=\"height:45px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n<h2 class=\"has-text-align-center\">Price: Enroll For Free!<\/h2>\n<div style=\"height:45px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"wp-block-button aligncenter\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-text-color has-very-light-gray-color has-background has-vivid-red-background-color\" href=\"https:\/\/www.coursera.org\/learn\/nonprofit-gov-capstone\">View Class<\/a><\/div>\n<div style=\"height:55px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column\">\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><em><strong>Language:<\/strong> <\/em>English<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"wp-block-column\">\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><em><strong>Subtitles<\/strong>: <\/em>English<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p style=\"background-color:#496d89\" class=\"has-text-color has-background has-text-align-center has-very-light-gray-color\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.coursera.org\/learn\/nonprofit-gov-capstone\">Capstone &#8211; Managing Board Change for Higher Levels of Leadership and Governance Effectiveness<strong> &#8211; The State University of New York<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Description The Capstone Project is a service learning experience designed to apply the knowledge and skills developed in the three Specialization courses to a real world leadership and governance situation.
