Listen "Board Dynamics and Innovation in Nepalese NGOs"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode, we dive into a new study on the factors influencing innovation in Nepalese NGOs. The research examines how board effectiveness, board diversity, and organizational characteristics impact innovation within these organizations.
We'll break down the key findings, including why effective boards in resource acquisition and monitoring are strong predictors of innovation, while strategic involvement shows a limited effect. We’ll also discuss why board diversity alone doesn't guarantee diverse perspectives and explore the surprising link between longer board chair tenure and lower innovation.
Join us as we discuss the implications of this study for NGO governance, the role of boards, and the future of innovation in the nonprofit sector. Whether you're involved in nonprofit management, governance, or just interested in what drives organizational innovation, this episode offers valuable insights into the unique challenges faced by NGOs in Nepal.
