Put in 2-4 years and walk away.
The rest is all fair though.

I disagree with you here, I started in year one to be a lame duck board member to stop stupidity. I ended up being president. We had trouble filling board spots so it was either an empty chair or a lame duck. I preferred the lame duck. Mostly because they would vote against the activist board members. And eventually a lame duck board member becomes experienced and starts to do more.
For me involvement of any kind is better than apathy.
