Michigan Association of Charter School Boards

What is Leadership Governance and What's In It For Our Board?
	Leadership Governance is a comprehensive and straight-forward framework for Board action that paves the way to a highly effective organization. Leadership Governance shows the Board how to lead the Academy in achieving its mission without getting mired in the details. It paves the way to quality Education in a clear and measurable manner, and provides the tools Boards need to do the job called Governance! It replaces the mystery and uncertainty of Board work with a confidence building model for Board performance that focuses on pinpointing accountability for student achievement while promoting a creative environment for school administration.

What it isn't!		Your Board will benefit from Leadership Governance if it...
Leadership Governance is NOT the usual stuff ! Yes, it is different…but only because it will finally show you an approach to governance that is exactly what you always thought it should be.		frequently focuses on the seemingly TRIVIAL can't get a handle on administrative PERFORMANCE doesn't feel it is really in command of ANYTHING REACTS to things rather than PROACTIVELY setting the tone for school performance doesn't always speak with ONE clear voice doesn't SET its OWN agenda for meetings and deliberations instinctively KNOWS something isn't quite right, but CAN'T QUITE put a finger on it stumbles between RUBBER-STAMPING and MEDDLING with school operations has a member(or two) who think they are ACADEMY STAFF

Boards are established to lead...NOT follow.

Boards are accountable for everything, but not responsible for daily school operations.

Boards must establish their EXPECTATIONS for Academy performance and prudent administration AND measure the level of accomplishment.

Boards must be independent representatives of the public at large.
