Abstract
Before voting in a new board member, your organization surely conducts a thorough vetting of the candidate and keeps an eye out for any red flags that might be a cause of concern about their future behavior and actions while serving on your board. Even still, there are steps that your nonprofit should take to further instill expectations of responsible, ethical behavior—and at the top of the list is a formal code of ethics that all board members must read, understand and sign, experts say.
