Board Roles & Responsibilities

Make the Unspoken Explicit

The WOODFOLK Way

  • Define the real job. What this board must do: give, get, and govern.
  • Match roles to needs. Each expectation tied to what the organization requires.
  • Pressure-test it together. We review with the board to confirm it's truly shared.
  • Secure the yes. Individual buy-in to each role.
  • Put it on paper. Agreed roles and responsibilities, documented.
