The National Center for Nonprofit Boards
(NCNB) has identified five basic
assumptions with respect to boards
of directors:
- There is no generic model of board size,
composition or organization that works for all circumstance.
- Board and board members roles, duties, and
responsibilities are fundamentally the same for all organizations
- How boards and board members actually fulfill
their responsibilities will vary
- All organizations will undergo one or more
metamorphoses over time
- Boards and board members begin to reach their
optimum levels of performance when they exercise their responsibilities
via asking good questions
