Business On Board

Expectations of Arts Host Organizations

• Complete the online application: artsandbusinessphila.secure.force.com/webforms/bobArtsApp
  
  
• Meet with the executive you are hosting to answer questions about your organization. We will ask the executive to contact you directly following our first Business On Board training session in October.
  
  
• Invite the executive to all appropriate board and committee meetings during the Business On Board training program (October to March). We hope each executive will have the opportunity to attend at least one meeting each month.
  
  
• Provide the executive with all relevant materials customarily provided to board members with an understanding that such information will be held in strict confidence.
  
  
• Include the executive in meetings, discussions or functions that would give additional insight into board leadership and/or utilize the skills or expertise of the executive.
  
  
• Inform the Business On Board Program Director by the end of the hosting period in June if you wish to continue a relationship with the executive.
  
  
• If a Business On Board participant joins your board or a board committee, you will receive an invoice for a $250 placement fee.
  
  

Note: Because this hosting relationship is a part of the Business On Board training program and is not considered a final placement, there is no obligation on the part of either the host arts organization or the executive to maintain a relationship at the completion of the Business On Board assignment.
