  7. Commitment Four Types of People: • Cop-outs: People who have not goals and do not commit. • Hold-outs: People who don’t know if they can reach their goals, so they are afraid to commit. • Drop-outs: People who start toward a goal, but quit when the going gets tough. • All-outs: People who set goals, commit to them, and pay the price to reach them.

  8. Contribution • Gifts and talents • Influence • Creditability • Knowledge and experience • Creativity and innovation • Competence • Courage “One person seeking glory doesn’t accomplish much. Success is the result of people pulling together to meet common goals”. -John Maxwell

  11. Cooperation • WISHBONES- spend their time wishing someone would do the work. • JAWBONES- who do all the talking, but very little else. • KNUCKLESBONES- who knock everything anyone ever tries to do, and • BACKBONES- who get under the load and do the work. - Unknown

  13. Leadership Principles for Board Members • Approach all Board issues with an open mind, prepared to make the best decision for the whole organization. • Do nothing to violate the trust of those who elected me to the Board or those we serve. • Focus my efforts on the mission of the organization and not on my personal goals. • Never exercise authority as a Board member except when acting in a meeting with the full Board or as I am delegated by the Board.

  14. Lord, Thou KnowestI have been elected to the Board of Directors of the National Coalition of Black Meeting Planners. Keep me from becoming talkative and possessed with the idea that I must express myself on every subject.Release me from the craving of getting involved with everyone’s affairs.Keep my mind free from the recital of endless detail.Give me wings to get to the point.Seal my lips when I am inclined to tell about my complaints.My love to talk about themhas grown sweeter as they are oft-repeated.Teach me the glorious lesson that (occasionally)I may be wrong.Make me thoughtful, not nosy: helpful, not bossy.With my vast store of wisdom and experience,it does not seem a pity not to use it all.But, thou knowest Lord, that I want a few friends,When my term expires. - Unknown

  15. Synergy for Board Success • Commitment • Contributions • Communications • Character • Cooperation

  16. Thank You! “…Who would ever doubt that a small group of thoughtful and committed individuals could change the world, indeed that is the only thing that ever has.” -Margaret Mead
