Choose wisely and never rush to put anyone on your board. Establish term limits for your board members. I inherited a toxic, elderly board bully who thought she knew everything, and was resistant to change and new ideas. I established term limits after 3 years of her BS and booted her. You must do this in order to keep the board fresh and vibrant. Many who “serve” on a board are there to embellish their resumes, network and gain bragging rights. They are not in the least interesting in providing the resources, work or leadership the organization needs.

It would be good to spell performance correctly.
