About CREB® BOD meeting reports
In February 2020, the board of directors began generative discussions on how to best communicate topics being covered at the board table.
After a detailed review, the Governance Standing Committee made a recommendation to amend the CREB® Governance Manual Policy 2.1.6 Board Meeting Policy to require the posting of a board meeting report. Now, following each board meeting, a meeting report will be shared with members that summarizes what was discussed.
