Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Job of Being a Trustee: Monograph I to Accompany Round Table Plan for Trustees of Institutions for Dependent Children
In many cases precedents are established in a will or a deed of gift by the original donor who had little or no practical knowledge of the work to be undertaken. Many boards of trustees are dominated by the personality of one or two individuals of vigorous character who practically dictate the policy of the board while their fellow members do little but to record and give legal effect to their wishes. In other boards the opposite tendency is seen in the distribution of the work of administration among a number of committees which, acting independently, fail to develop a consistent and harmonious policy, with confusion and weakness as a result.
