Online Board Meetings Benefits
Board members of non-profit organizations already have to maintain a balance between their professional and private lives. So, adding the convenience to online meetings allows them to attend these important gatherings. This allows them to make policy changes, and implement programs that are more relevant to the people they serve.
The fact that board meetings are held remotely means that it’s less likely for board members to miss them due to unplanned situations like traffic jams, tight meeting schedules, and travel stress. Board members can login to their virtual boardroom by clicking the link that is sent to them via email and follow along with the agenda and discussion.
It’s also a lot simpler to be involved in the discussions and presentations during an online meeting because they are made possible by tools for communication, such as video conference. Online meeting tools allow participants to vote by hand gestures or on their computer screen. Participants can also send written feedback and comments.
Digital environments are also more efficient for managing board documents because it can store every document that is discussed and shared during the meeting. It also helps to mitigate any dangers that could arise if physical files are misplaced or destroyed.
It’s also less expensive to hold the meeting online than an actual one, since the organization can save money on the cost of renting rooms or food and refreshments. Online board meetings are generally non-paper, which also reduces costs.
