Hello,

What a year the first half of 2010
has already been! This is the first newsletter we’ve had a chance to do in
a while, and you will soon see why.
This year the Institute is splitting
from the consulting firm that birthed it, filing for its own corporate status
and tax exemption, and taking off on its own. It’s been a busy year, with
much happening and much to share.

Building
an Energized Board: Videos |
|
What does it
take to build an energized, engaged board that is leading your organization to
great results?
|
|
Transparency:
What Does It Really Mean? |
|
What would it
look like if an organization made even the most “private” decisions
as transparently as possible?
Our first big
transparency effort - Renaming the Institute!

Making

What do you get
when you combine a governance workshop with a 6 month old
baby?
You get life
lessons (and consulting lessons) beyond any we could have imagined.

We
Have Questions! |
|
Because the
Institute is a work-in-progress, it’s not always easy to clearly describe
what we do.
We’ve been
updating our FAQ page, and we’re hoping you will tell
us:
- Does
the page answer your questions about the CDI?
- What questions
should we be answering that aren’t there?
To share your
thoughts, please just hit reply to this email. We can’t thank you enough
for helping us clarify!

What can we
accomplish together that we cannot accomplish alone? Something
AMAZING!
|
In the coming months, we will be
creating ways for our subscribers to all get to know each other. Our ability to
connect will be imperative if we are to ensure everything about this
sector’s work is aimed at the change we want to see in the world.
For now, please hit reply and
introduce yourself to us. We can’t wait to see what we can all accomplish
together!

Thank you, as
always, for the work you do to make your communities better places to live. We
wish for you all the possibilities life
