Marty provides information packed and interactive board workshops and training. Provided either through an individual session or in a series his workshops are designed to strengthen the board and organization’s capacity.
Representative workshops include:
- Board Orientation - Board members coming on a new board of directors will benefit significantly
from a structured orientation on their expectations and roles and responsibilities related to their
service as a new board member. Working with the current senior leadership this workshop will provide
a structured orientation shaped to the needs of their board which will help new board members hit the
ground running in their new board assignments.
- Board Governance - A board of directors has increasing accountability and legal responsibility
for the nonprofit and its actions. This workshop provides a substantive overview for the new and
experienced board member and senior management in the evolving legal and governance management.
- Board Governance: Linking Performance and Prestige - Increasing accountability require a board
and senior management to manage their nonprofit effectively. This workshop will introduce participants
to the concepts of a Balanced Scorecard as a management and governance model to map strategy and to
establish a high performing organization.
- S.O.A.R. - To Develop a Strong Board - Developing a strong board requires careful consideration
of who serves on the board. This workshop provides a four step process to develop a stronger and
more effective board of directors.
- Planning and Implementation - Boards and staff must plan and implement. This workshop provides
the opportunity for the board and staff to do both.

Comments from Participants in the Capstone Seminar Course
“Professor Martin’s class has been one of the most challenging classes I’ve ever taken in the past four years.
In my undergrad career, I have been able to halfway read or study and somehow managed to get through each course.
However, I walked out of his classroom on the first day feeling ignorant and unprepared after discussing the
case study. I realized this is how so many people meander through life. They are ignorant of the issues, suffering,
and injustice that goes on around them, so they choose to walk through life doing nothing meaningful. I knew
this classroom was essentially practice in how I was going to live my life. Perhaps it was even practice for
sitting on a nonprofit board. I do not want to live my life without being knowledgeable or caring about the
issues at hand. After the first day, I made a conscious effort to never enter the classroom again, unless I
was fully prepared and willing to work hard. Professor Martin pushed me to work harder, to think more critically,
and to reach past my comfort zone in speaking my mind. However, this is exactly what the nonprofit world calls for.
It calls for people who are willing to go the extra mile, work longer hours, and speak out when everyone else
wants to be silent.”
“The two courses that influenced me as a leader the most were COM 466 [Nonprofit Leadership and Development]
and NPS 498 [Capstone Seminar in Nonprofit Studies]. NPS 498 is a challenging class. The structure of this
class pushed me to be more detail-oriented and become a critical thinker. Professor Martin put us in the hot
seat to make decisions and stimulate real-life situations we will soon face as graduating seniors walking
into the working world. This course encourages students not to take the easy way out and face the hard facts
whether it means stepping down as an executive director or closing down an organization entirely. The situations
we studied in class are real.”

Comments from Seminar Participants
“This was one of the most engaging and effective courses I’ve taken at Duke’s Non
Profit Management program – Thank you!”
“Marty's very knowledgeable – teaching style was easy & comfortable.”
“Thank you for your assistance during this formative process for our organization. You have
been a vital asset in guiding us through the legal and policy aspects of being a non-profit.
In addition, your wisdom in this area has been extremely influential in our development into
what we hope is the start of an effective non-profit organization. We look forward to
continuing to work with you over the coming years.”
“Your information and perspective have given me a renewed sense of purpose to help our board
and our non-profit grow and be a successful model for others.”
