THE" CORE NONPROFIT BOARD QUESTION TO BE ASKED OF CEOs.

Allen Procter is former CFO of Harvard University and a BizJournal columnist.  He also consults with nonprofits.  According to Allen, the CORE question board members should be asking is if there is the right balance between mission enhancement versus mission sustainability. Operate within your narrow zone of mission comfort and you become a victim and your mission will fail.  Grow too much beyond your core competence and you jeapordize your core mission.  What's the right balance?  Are CEOs even thinking in terms of balance?
