Step-by-Step Guide: How to Remove a Nonprofit Board Member Check Your Bylaws. Before taking action, it is important to check your bylaws. Ask for a Resignation or Leave of Absence. Seek Unanimous Consent. Schedule a Special Meeting. Hold a Vote. Report to the State and the IRS.
The Legal Option Many bylaws require that notice be given to the Board member who might be terminated and that a super-majority of Board members must vote to expel the member. But, again, review your own bylaws and get legal counsel if you need to remove a Board member.
Provide appropriate notice. Check your bylaws or agreements to determine the required notice period, and include that in your letter. This shows you are honoring your obligations. Close appropriately. End the letter with a formal closing such as ``Sincerely'' or ``Best regards'' followed by your name.

Best practices for board management Establish a clear board structure. Align the board and the CEO. Foster diversity and inclusion. Open the lines of communication. Streamline meetings. Sharpen directors' skills. Encourage active engagement. Maintain accountability.
If the owners are unhappy with a board decision, they can convene a meeting, vote to remove one or more directors, and hope the replacement directors make a more satisfactory decision.
