Overview

Are you on a not-for-profit board? A church board? A business board? Or do you approach the thought of such a responsibility with trepidation?

Charles C. Ryrie has served on all sorts of boards, and he has thought much about their great opportunities. He has also noted problems that are common to boards:

  • Finding good members
  • Keeping them when they are found
  • Resolving conflicts
  • Using meeting times efficiently
  • Overseeing financial accountability

The practical advice in this book addresses these and other issues for the novice or experienced board members. The principles are applicable to a wide variety of profit and not-for-profit organizations and ministries. Ryrie gives the reasons for having a board and the ingredients for managing them well.

“A third reason for needing boards is that they provide for accountability” (Page 22)

“Notice something about the apostles and the deacons that will keep coming up in this book: both groups knew what their particular mission was and kept that mission in clear focus, undiluted and undiverted as they carried it out. The apostles’ mission was to pray and minister the Word. The deacons’ was to care for the widows. Each group ‘stuck to its guns.’” (Page 20)

“The selection process should include the entire board.” (Page 28)
