While I advise to use the current edition of Robert's Rules and explained several reasons in the last episode, there are also good reasons to use a different parliamentary authority. Here are three:

It's one size fits all. Much of the procedures included in Robert's Rules are unneeded for the majority of nonprofit boards. My suggested resource for this is Robert's Rules of Order Newly Revised in Brief.
Robert's Rules is not based on consensus-building, which today's leadership models emphasize.
People think they know Robert's Rules when they don't, so there can be a lot of confusion.

I recommend you follow Robert’s Rules, using the latest version: Robert's Rules of Order Newly Revised, 11th Edition. But I also recommend you get the current version of Robert’s Rules of Order Newly Revised in Brief, which is in its second edition. Click on the links for my Amazon affiliate links.
