If your board were a vehicle, which one would it be? Full tank but no driver? Stuck in park because nobody wants to talk about money? Or ready to roll? In this episode, Kyle shares the board development training he leads with nonprofit boards. It's built on one big idea: you are not just a fundraiser. You'll learn the four roles every board member plays, the 5 T's of philanthropy, and a simple plan for activating your network in the next 30 days.

• The board vehicle check: where your board is now, and where you want it in 90 days
• "Be selfish": why knowing what you get from the mission makes you a better board member
• Four roles beyond fundraising: expand visibility, open doors, strengthen strategy, and protect the mission
• The 5 T's of philanthropy: Time, Talent, Treasure, Ties, and Testimony
• The "share with 10 people" exercise
