Question: Describe challenges to board recruitment, and reasons why they would be challenges and how they can be addressed.
The solution provides "real world" scenarios on two recruitment challenges.The first is lack of compensation as most members serving a non-profit are in unpaid positions. Unless a person is retired and/or has another income source, it can be difficult to take on the responsibilities of a position that has no pay. The other challenge is fully understanding the vast job duties; such as being tasked with making difficult decisions on matters such as budgeting and program cuts.
