Introduction to Governance –
Why do Boards Exist?
 • Hold public benefit corporation “in trust” for the
   community
    – All corporate powers exercised by or under direction
      of the board
    – Substitute for shareholders and/or represent
      members
    – Prevent nonprofit executive abuse and protect
      donors

 • Legal duties:
    – Care (prudent person)
    – Loyalty (put organization first)
    – Obedience (faithful to mission and laws)

                             14
Types of Boards
 Organizing Board
   – small, homogeneous, informal
   – committed to purpose, often very hands on
   – “leading boards” and “following boards”

 Governing Board
   – larger and more diverse
   – committees become important
   – shared authority between board and staff: board chair and executive
     director are principal leaders
   – transition to governing board takes at least 3 years and a lot of staff time

 Institutional Board
   –   largest (35-60 or more)
   –   often prestigious -- includes large donors or those with access to funders
   –   key role in fundraising
   –   sometimes delegates governance tasks to executive committee


                                         15
9 Responsibilities of Nonprofit Boards

• Shape, clarify                                      • Ensure adequate

  vision                                                resources
• Engage actively                                     • Lend expertise;

Lessons From Our Research

 – There are 9 clearly defined roles of a nonprofit board, with a gold
   standard of performance for each

 – Lots of ways boards, as entities and individuals, can help. Pick
   your spots carefully to allot valuable time where needed most

 – Recognize performance and risk management as one of the
   nonprofit board's core roles

 – Good governance is execution, so sweat the little things: good
   meeting agendas/materials, open communication, having fun.

 – Invest significant time in board evaluation and continuous
   improvement



                                                                         17

  • 14. Introduction to Governance – Why do Boards Exist? • Hold public benefit corporation “in trust” for the community – All corporate powers exercised by or under direction of the board – Substitute for shareholders and/or represent members – Prevent nonprofit executive abuse and protect donors • Legal duties: – Care (prudent person) – Loyalty (put organization first) – Obedience (faithful to mission and laws) 14
  • 15. Types of Boards  Organizing Board – small, homogeneous, informal – committed to purpose, often very hands on – “leading boards” and “following boards”  Governing Board – larger and more diverse – committees become important – shared authority between board and staff: board chair and executive director are principal leaders – transition to governing board takes at least 3 years and a lot of staff time  Institutional Board – largest (35-60 or more) – often prestigious -- includes large donors or those with access to funders – key role in fundraising – sometimes delegates governance tasks to executive committee 15

  • 17. Lessons From Our Research – There are 9 clearly defined roles of a nonprofit board, with a gold standard of performance for each – Lots of ways boards, as entities and individuals, can help. Pick your spots carefully to allot valuable time where needed most – Recognize performance and risk management as one of the nonprofit board's core roles – Good governance is execution, so sweat the little things: good meeting agendas/materials, open communication, having fun. – Invest significant time in board evaluation and continuous improvement 17
