What should be presented at each board meeting

A standing agenda that forces decisions instead of open-ended discussion.

Preview below · Full guide for CMI members

Boards drown in updates and starve for decisions. Every meeting should surface numbers, risks, and votes - not a tour of every committee's feelings.

Standing items: membership, money, communications, events, political calendar, and open votes with owners and deadlines.

The full guide provides a repeatable agenda template and sample scorecards chairs can drop into the packet.
