Governance Policy Manual
INTRODUCTION
Effective leadership requires that the Board of Directors provide the Society's vision. To do so, the Board must first have a comprehensive vision of its own job. That role is best conceived neither as a volunteer-helper nor as a watchdog, but rather as a trustee-owner. Policy governance (or Carver governance) is an approach to governance that emphasizes values, vision and strategy, and empowers the Board of Directors ("Board"), Board Committees, and the Chief Executive Officer.
According to the principles of policy governance, the Board imbeds its values and wisdom within the following four policy types:
1. Ends Policies Through Ends policies, the Board defines which human needs are to be met and for whom and at what cost. Ends policies are written with a long-term perspective; these policies embody most of the Board's part of longrange planning.
2. Governance Policies Through Governance policies, the Board expresses the philosophy, accountability and specifics of its own job.
3. Relationship Policies Through Relationship policies, the Board clarifies the way it delegates its authority to the Chief Executive Officer, as well as how it evaluates performance.
4. Limitations Policies Through Limitations policies, which apply to the President, Treasurer, and Chief Executive Officer, the Board establishes the boundaries of acceptable behavior and activities of those positions and groups.
