Irwin Miller
Portrait of a Trustee
|
Running Time (28:50) Includes Viewers Guide (21 pp.) Awards Honorable Mention, American Film Festival Cine Golden Eagle |
About the Film About a man who, through service to many organizations, exemplifies some of the finest qualities of the nonprofit trustee. Miller, former CEO of Cummins Engine Company, reflects on the personal rewards and challenges of being a trustee. He offers thought-provoking and often controversial views on how trustees can best be chosen, prepared, and used to strengthen nonprofit institutions. Whether he is using the analogy of fixing a broken engine part, discussing the tendency to resist change, or recommending the best order for items on a board meeting agenda, Miller makes the concepts and practice of trusteeship accessible--and discussable."
