Good point on fiduciary responsibility, but let me take board responsibility one step further. I will soon become a member of The Parke Board of Directors (3 vacancies and 3 candidates). The Parke has already enrolled me in the Community Associations Institute for training and here is an excerpt from the handbook for Board members:
A Strong Board Member: Good Character Strong integrity Calm judgment Willingness to serve Committed to the best interest of the community as a whole Relevant experience or background Previous volunteer service Strong "People skills" An Inappropriate Board Member Unable to put the welfare of the community first Works behind the board to run things his or her way Impulsive or quick tempered Has a personal or hidden agenda Puts individual interests first Little or no experience in management, leadership, or service Unable to work with others for the common good Poor interpersonal skills Speaking as one who just flunked miserably the above test, it appears to me that the Parke's requirements are more stringent than the US constitution for, uh, you know, president. |
