The Model of Board Leadership
The Model of Board Leadership is drawn from the insights gained through experience with over 150 charities over the course of 35 years, serving in capacities ranging from staff employee to board member and volunteer. This experience underscored two truths about board leadership: that the board must focus on growth and finances, and that if they over-emphasize issues related to income and expense, their attention may drift away from mission fulfillment. The Model of Board Leadership provides a practical, proven approach to balancing these competing truths, and is presented within the framework of four key dimensions:
- Governance
- Giving
- Ambassadorship
- Consulting
