...THE ROLE OF NON-EXECUTIVE DIRECTORS Essentially the non-executive director's (NED) role is to provide a creative contribution to the board by providing independent oversight and constructive challenge to the executive directors. NED could act as the 10th man in ‘10th man idea’ where his/her role is to disagree no matter how improbable the idea nine people agree on something. He/ She may present a case for an alternative viewpoint — no matter how ridiculous the idea sounds. If his evidence is still inferior and conflicts with the consensus of the other nine men, then they go through with their original plan. If the tenth man’s ideas prove to be superior, they explore his ideas further. Therefore, with NED argument and consultation, the decision that come out from boardroom has been consolidated and unbiased. The 1992 Cadbury Report initiated a debate about the main functions and responsibilities of non-executive directors. Today, it is widely accepted that non-executive directors have an important contribution to make to the proper running of companies and, therefore, more widely to the economy at large. As the Cadbury Report said, they: “should bring an independent judgement to bear on issues of strategy, performance and resources including key appointments and standards of conduct.” There is no legal distinction between executive and non-executive directors. As a consequence, in the UK unitary board structure, non-executive directors have the same legal duties,...

...Ethics Case: Good Works Bad Accounting? The dilemma/ethical issue that arises out of this case is in the hands of Jill Lassiter. She is the newly appointed executive director of a charity dedicated to helping single mothers called Good Works for Women. She must get the financial statements in order so that they satisfy Ms. Lyndelle Oakes, the organization’s largest donor. Jill must decide whether to restate her budget using faulty estimates or to be honest about the organization’s difficulties and face losing a crucial donation. Jill knew that being the executive director of the charity would not be easy, especially considering the charity’s past financial troubles. When the last executive director quit, the board had been slow in looking for a replacement. By the time the search began, three months had past. When they hired Jill, another month after beginning their search, the board admitted that the accounting records were in disarray. But now, after spending two weeks looking over the financials, Jill could see that she had taken on a large challenge. There was a decline in fundraising efforts and donations as well. In addition, the loss of income was severe and administrative expenses had tremendously exceeded the budget. Also, when she checked the contract with Ms. Oakes, she realized the charity was behind in providing quarterly financial statements necessary to continue receiving funds. In fact, Ms. Oakes has not seen any statements since the audit conducted eight...

The director should have an idea of how they want their organization ran and what type of people they want to help run it. Therefore when it’s time to start the hiring process the director need to be sure they find the most qualified individuals, ones whom also have the same ideal for the company. The problem that may come out of this process is interviewing a qualified person that wants a high salary. Starting a business a director will have to have a budget, which leaves little to no room for salary negotiations. Finding the right destination will be another issue. With having a budget this could be a challenging task. Location and size of the building has a lot to do with the price you pay. The director will have to find the right play to hold the 1,000 students projected for the first year, and also the higher amounts projected for years after. All this has to be done while trying to stay in budget. As director the next challenge that he/she may face is to find the funding to develop and keep the organization running.

...Statement of opportunity The statement of opportunity is a statement showing how your organization can turn the problem (a weaker economy and people losing their jobs) into an opportunity. Your organization provides training to these people so they are marketable for higher paying positions. Human services can help with providing education in a wide variety along with helping in interventions. Caseworkers provide services to individual clients and possibly groups with various needs. I believe that the main goal would be to teach people who have drop out of school how to regain their independence and become a productive person within their communities once again. Human services can help with providing social skills and education, conduct relief programs with certain agencies and facilities. The Salvation Army is one of the agencies that focus on providing job skills to high school dropouts. This is a good way of getting some job skills and training with out the skills dropouts suffer from reduced earnings and lost of many opportunities in the work field. Impact Of Organizational Structure The impact of organizational structure discusses how the challenge affects the structure of the organization and the importance of turning the challenge into an opportunity. One way to approach this is noting that a market with trained professionals may bring business back to the area. The organization will need the staff available to train the new...

I may not be holding a permanent, temporary nor a casual position, and technically, I may have no employer-employee relationship with my agency, but with the clienteles which my office is serving-the public, I am completely aware that I owe the public my commitment to their interest. Thus, before I go to work, regardless of my personal circumstances and difficulties at some times, I inculcate in my mind that this commitment should not, in any way, get affected once I enter the gates of my office through the simplest way of giving every person I meet at the corridors my sweetest smile. I am assigned at the Office of the Regional Executive Director; hence, a number of visitors and clients, from farmers, to farmer-cooperatives/associations, to politicians, come and go every day requesting for various forms of assistance from the Regional Director. Thus, in so serving them, once they enter our room, I readily...

...Fundraising, this report is first time that executive directors and senior development directors have ever been surveyed about the state of nonprofit development. The Haas Foundation in partnership with CompassPoint surveyed over 2,700 professionals during the summer of 2012 via electronic surveys and focus groups. This data has yielded some intriguing and interesting findings on why development is lagging in the nonprofit sector. Some of the main topics explored in this study are: • Revolving Door of Development • Help Wanted: Inadequate and Uneven Talent Pool • More the One Person: Lacking the Conditions for Fundraising Success • Defining a “Culture of Philanthropy” • Breaking the Vicious Cycle The research shows that the fundamental tools for developmental success are 1) fundraising plans and databases 2) board and executive leadership who lack development skills and 3) shared culture of philanthropy across the organization. Section Summaries: Please see attached PowerPoint for exact numbers • The Revolving Door issue- The study found that within nonprofits, a development director’s job could be vacant for months or years. This lack of fundraising personnel does not bode well for an organization, and the longer vacancies (1-2 years) were found in mid-to-smaller size organizations. These are the organizations in the most need for fundraising and development. Another disturbing finding is that about 50% of current development directors are looking to leave their jobs, and...
