089: REFRESH Nonprofit Basics: Designators, Members, Directors, Officers - The Who's Who of Nonprofit Governance

Welcome to EO Radio Show - Your Nonprofit Legal Resource. For the next few weeks, we refresh our earliest episodes on nonprofit basics. During these dog days of summer, it's a good time to bring back some of our early episodes that cover fundamental topics that nonprofit leaders and aspiring leaders need to understand. In this refresh of episode #2, Cynthia Rowland talks about some of the roles people play in nonprofit corporation governance. We're focused here mostly on nonprofit corporations, although nonprofits can be formed as charitable trusts. Let's go over the nonprofit governance positions first and then we'll circle back to how these concepts of governance apply in the trust structure. Since this episode was first published in the summer of 2022, we've added the podcast to our YouTube channel, so listeners might want to look over the playlist on our channel that covers all the basics and also our broad coverage of the formation mechanics in 32 states. Take a look at the show notes for updated links.
