In the case of board member remote voting, any decision that is approved by a majority (excluding abstentions) at any regular or an extraordinary meeting is valid. This is the case absent a look at here now statute or administrative code section, by-law or board policy or board policy declares otherwise.
If your board has an established procedure for remote voting, review it and make sure the procedure is properly followed. If you do decide to allow remote voting, you should also ensure that quorum is met and the board management software allows for a secure, transparent and accurate vote.
In the past when a board was voting to pass a motion, they would typically use ballots distributed in advance or record the results on a roll call. However, with the advances in technology and the need to manage meetings remotely, it makes sense to utilize an online voting system that allows members to express their decisions quickly. MeetingPulse for instance, allows members to vote from anywhere with internet access. It’s also easy to use and provides security for enterprises.
Regardless of which method your board chooses, the best way to make sure that all members feel confident in their decision making is to encourage them to be active during discussions. This will encourage engagement and ensure that everyone’s voice is heard, which will reduce the chance of a member arguing against the final results.
