First read the whole case, and then join the discussion! Case available at http://www.nonprofitquarterly.org/images/fbfiles/files/ The_Ultimate_Question.pdf

The infamous board meeting described in the case included four brand-new board members. Without having experienced some of the important events in recent history, it had to be hard for new people to absorb what was going on in the meeting at the time. None of them spoke up, and all of them voted with the majority.

What do you think you would have done if you were in this meeting as a brand-new board member?
