I work at a small art/craft nonprofit. The board of directors are volunteers who don't draw any salary from their positions so you'd think we would be in a pretty good position to get reasonable pay and benefits, but that's unfortunately not the case.
I've recently come into some information that confirms there's plenty of money to go around to provide staff with reasonable pay and benefits, but that these funds are being horribly mismanaged by the board instead (not illegally, just very dumbly).
I'm not really sure what my first step is. I'm reasonably certain if it came down to a vote I could get a majority of the staff to agree to unionize, but I have no clue what I'm doing beyond that. Is there some sort of guide written up someone could share with me, or someone here willing to set me on the right track?
