Committee Charter

Getting the most out of committees

Board committees are an excellent mechanism for boards of directors to focus on particular topics, manage board workload, and provide opportunities to enable succession and board renewal.

However there is often confusion between the role of the board and the role of committees.  One mechanism for improving the clarity around committees and improving the value they deliver to the organisation is to develop a committee charter.

A committee charter clearly defines the committee's purpose, delegation of authority, reporting requirements and meeting protocols.

Effective Governance can help your organisation to define each committee's role, and to develop a committee charter to ensure effective use of committees.
