You are the CEO of a foundation in Indonesia. The foundation is the local form of nonprofits in the country with board members who are a majority Indonesian residents. The foundation is an affiliate of International World Alive, a Christian-based organization working on the plight of children’s poverty throughout the world. A board member of the US World Alive, another affiliate of International World Alive, has called one of your Indonesian board members. The US board member is proposing to bring a major U.S. donor to meet with your board about funding the establishment of private health clinics throughout Indonesian. Your board member has called you because she’s really excited to bring this donor to the Indonesian board.
You are planning a call with your board member about this idea. Put together talking points for yourself (in complete sentences). Consider these questions as you prepare your points: What do want to emphasize to your board member? What is important to emphasize about their role as a board member in this case? What do you want to consider about any donor? What are the next few steps you’d like to get the board to understand or agree to?
