As a first generation family foundation board it is helpful to learn from peers who have experience, wisdom and advice on best practices to manage the challenges and opportunities of operating across generations and geography.

It flowed nicely and the material was presented well. I especially liked the survey at the beginning so I can understand where our Foundation fit in with others.

Nice to have affirmation from those with more experience. We are well on our way with many of the issues and responses discussed, but the perspectives and the resources were extremely useful.
