Association Executive Services

The nature of volunteer-governed organizations often involves time-pressed volunteers, leadership turnover, and Board members who may be experts in their profession but not as experienced with non-profit management. By providing association executive services, SBI performs a fiduciary function for the association, invokes industry best practices, and provides financial and business management expertise while providing continuity in leadership. SBI’s Association Executives serve in the role of Executive Director for our clients and work in partnership with the Board and staff to provide leadership, vision, and direction for the organization and to develop an organizational strategy. The dedicated SBI staff member serving as Executive Director for your organization becomes your single most valuable resource.

Getting started with SBI is simple. We would love to hear from you and to learn about your specific needs.
