To serve as effective fiduciaries, governing board members must put the best interests of the institution first, to ensure its mission fulfillment and long-term sustainability. While they must be open and listen to a wide range of viewpoints and approaches from a range of constituencies, they must also sharpen their ability to recognize and, if necessary, reject influences they determine are not in line with their fiduciary responsibilities. Governing boards must demonstrate their independence for both fiduciary and accreditation purposes.
To support your board in tackling these issues, AGB has developed this Influences on Board Independence and Leadership Toolkit. It includes materials, resources, and perspectives to facilitate your board’s understanding and actions.
