Toast Presidency and The Board

[jathanas]

Thank you 76woodenspooners

One of BigFooty’s all-time-favourite posters, Reykjavik , was all across the board level stuff. He once posted a list of the responsibilities of a Not-For-Profit board like that of Collingwood …

NFP board responsibilities
Specific responsibilities of a not-for-profit (NFP) board include:

• Driving the strategic direction of the organisation
• Working with the CEO to enable the organisation to obtain the resources, funds and personnel necessary to implement the organisation's strategic objectives
• Implementing, maintaining and (as necessary) refining a system of good governance that is appropriate for the organisation
• Reviewing reports and monitoring the performance of the organisation
• Regularly reviewing the board's structure and composition, so that these are appropriate for the organisation
• Appointing – and managing the performance of – a suitable CEO
• Succession planning for the CEO

While the above points are also applicable to for-profit boards, NFP boards also face a unique range of issues, such as:

• Difficulties in defining and measuring organisational effectiveness
• Transgression of role boundaries
• The negative impact of the structural compositions of some NFP boards, including those arising from representative models
• Funding dependencies and constraints

In practice, the role of the board is to supervise an organisation's business in two broad areas:

1. Overall business performance - ensuring the organisation develops and implements strategies and supporting policies to enable it to fulfill the objectives set out in the organisation's constitution. The board delegates the day to day management of the organisation but remains accountable to the shareholders for the organisation's performance. The board monitors and supports management in an on-going way.
2. Overall compliance performance - ensuring the organisation develops and implements systems to enable it to comply with its legal and policy obligations (complying with statutes such as the Corporations Act 2001, adhering to accounting standards) and ensure the organisation's assets are protected through appropriate risk management.

SO he Mates with Eddie?

 

[TradeDraft]

Just hope he is not a Eddie Supporter/Mate

 

[AndrewShawble]

SO he Mates with Eddie?

Been on the board 14 years and part of the old guard.

Can we not get some new ways of working?

Been on the board since 2007 and is another rich arsehole. So probably!

I think he is part of the problem....not part of the solution.

If he has the club at heart his first action will be to introduce term limits for The President

Well you Hope so but Worry that it won't be and Eddie still be Pushing the Buttons behind the Scene

 

[Lockyer24]

Not really inspiring or the new direction I wanted, but will give him a chance. He is replacing a complete control freak remember.

 

[Matrix10]

Never change Collingwood, such a boys club , try looking outside the Collingwood square, you know, like we did when we brought in non boys club people like Mathews and Malthouse, this appointment is nepotism in all it`s Collingwood glory , just about over this sh!tshow

We don't know what the Freak/Eddie is doing Behind the Scene's

 

[Sea fog]

So we will continue to be irrelevant. If they went for a current board member, Murphy was the preference.

 

[Aussie pie]

So Putin has put in a deputy, refused to have elections and all the mates are coaching together. Hmm I wonder what’s wrong with the pies?
