Board Governance Committee

Purpose and Scope of Responsibility of Committee

This Committee provides guidance, oversight and support to ensure high-quality operations of the Board, including all officers, members and Committees.  Just like a car mechanic makes sure that the car operates well, but does not drive the car for a family, this Committee makes sure that the Board operates well, but does not do all of the work for the Board. 

For example, this Committee makes sure that the entire Board gets the best new members, trains those members, organizes and activates the best Committees, ensures high quality Board meetings, etc.; but the members of this Committee do not make decisions for the full Board – members of this Committee can only make recommendations for the full Board to approve.
