Structuring or restructuring your non-profit swim team for long-term success - andre salles cunha 

Andre Salas Cunha, CEO of Quicksilver Swimming, discussed structuring nonprofits for long-term success. He emphasized the importance of a professional board over parent-governed boards for oversight and legal compliance. Andre highlighted the need for a coach-operated model, where coaches manage operations and a board ensures legality. He shared his team's journey from a board-run to a coach-run model, noting a $60,000 loss in 2017 due to board instability. Andre advocated for stable, professional boards and proper bylaws to ensure financial stability and effective operations. He also stressed the importance of using professionals for financial management and legal counsel.
