This guide is designed to help elected officials, managers, clerks, and facilitators conduct productive retreats for local government boards. The governing board retreat is a valuable tool for board members and staff, allowing them to step away from routine business and focus on broader questions about their work and their vision for the future of their community. Building Better Boards provides practical advice on setting goals for the retreat, selecting participants, crafting effective agendas, ensuring productive discussions, and following through on the outcomes.
