Director's Charter

Most Not for Profit organisations have standards for membership. It is good governance practice to also have standards for Directors. The Board of Directors of the Central Ranges LLEN believes these standards should be publicly acknowledged by the Board to the organisation’s constituents.

Each Director recognises and agrees to uphold the following standards of behaviour:

  1. To take personal responsibility for contributing impartially to the decisions of the Board, with no thought given to personal gain.
  2. To actively seek adequate knowledge about the business of the organisation.
  3. To provide positive input into the development of organisational policy.
  4. To provide strong support for the long term strategies of the organisation.
  5. To accept the need to sufficiently prepare for Board meetings and decisions, and to insist on sufficient information to enable informed debate and decision making.
  6. To perform the assignments delegated by the Board.
  7. To delineate and state personal positions vs organisational positions on controversial matters to better enable the Board to make informed decisions for the betterment of the network and its constituents.
  8. To devote sufficient time to the duties of a Director.
  9. To uphold the highest ethical standards at the Board level.
  10. To tender a resignation if unable to uphold any of the above Standards of Behaviour
