500 _aService on a not-for-profit board can be a career-changer that broadens professional and personal vistas for CPAs. A board seat presents an opportunity to expand personal networks, develop leadership skills, and engage deeply with meaningful charitable missions. Three experts in not-for-profit leadership provide insights and advice on finding the right board, acing the selection process, and contributing effectively to the organization. "When you have a special skill set like finance and accounting, it's just a great opportunity to use it outside of your day job in a way that you can really see impact," said Cheryl R. Olson, CPA, CGMA, a director at Clark Nuber, a firm in Bellevue, Wash., who has served on numerous boards, related committees, and advisory groups. "It's for people who are looking to expand life, beyond just work," she added. "It's an opportunity to get out into the environment and see what else is happening in organizations."
