Guru’s Rules and resources

Join hundreds of boards around the world and use Guru’s Rules to help you run a more effective nonprofit board meeting and set a stronger board culture. We’ve also harnessed our extensive experience to develop additional tools and templates that streamline your work.

Kevin’s session was very insightful and informative, it really gave us an opportunity to think about our practices and really think hard about the work we are doing. Go check out Governance Guru’s website, the information he has shared with us has helped so much and you can apply it to your boards.

Board Member, Alberta School Boards Association

Kevin facilitated two full days of great training for our board, covering ideas including board responsibilities, financial oversight, succession planning, and evaluating our board. The days were efficient, fun, and chocked full of valuable and practical suggestions we are already putting in place. He made dull topics interesting and kept everyone engaged and laughing, even people who joined online. Kevin also provided a number of really helpful templates and documents for us to use and was able to answer all of our governance questions. He really knows his stuff and his experience is evident! Your board should definitely have Kevin come out and do some training!

Jackie Tower

Chair, College of Medical Laboratory Technicians

Kevin’s session was engaging, well-structured, and tailored to meet our needs. He demonstrated an excellent understanding of good governance and the role of a trustee and passed on this understanding well. The training  was accessible and valuable for new and returning trustees, as well as staff. We highly recommend Kevin’s training and facilitation services to any school board seeking meaningful and practical professional development.

Kevin knows his stuff. His classes were jampacked with information but presented in a way everyone could understand. His board classes should be taken by every board member!

The course was amazing. Kevin is very aware of the class and adjusts to different skills and experience of the board. Everyone learned something even us long-time board members.

He tried to get everyone involved and had us all participating just a few minutes after the class started. His speaking is clear and he had thoughtful answers to all our questions

I was thrilled to have the Guru as my facilitator for NPO Board Governance! Incredible, knowledgeable, entertaining! The participants were never ready to be done at the end of the evening! They learned so much that will be so beneficial to the Non-profit boards they sit on. If you are looking for an excellent facilitator do not hesitate to look to Kevin to fill that need!

Attending Kevin’s course on Non-Profit Board Roles & Responsibilities was invaluable. He kept my attention, and gave some fun anecdotes to help explain points. I am eager to learn more from him. Highly recommended!
