In this episode of On Boards, hosts Joe Ayoub and Raza Shaikh speak with Tina Larsson, a former Wall Street analyst, co-founder of The Folsom Group, and author of Living The High Life. Tina works with co-op, condo, and other HOA boards to improve governance to reduce costs, manage major building projects and oversee their shared residence effectively. Tina shares how she and her husband became involved in board governance after discovering that their New York City co-op board was poorly managed and incurring significant unnecessary expenses. After organizing their co-op neighbors and electing a new board majority, they introduced stronger governance practices to their board and saved their building substantial money in very short order. The conversation explores the governance challenges faced by residential boards, which are usually run by volunteers responsible for complex decisions. Tina shares how boards can improve oversight, manage projects more effectively and shift from reactive decision-making to a more proactive approach to governing their communities.
