| BDL-1 POLICY
TITLE: Governance-Management Connection The board’s sole official connection to the operational organization, its achievements and conduct will be through a Director.

||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

BDL-2 POLICY
TITLE: Unity of Control |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| BDL-3 POLICY
TITLE: Accountability of the Director The Director is the boards only link to operational achievement and conduct, so that all authority and accountability of staff, as far as the board is concerned, is considered the authority and accountability of the Director. Accordingly: 1. The board will never give instructions to persons who report directly or indirectly to the DIRECTOR. 2. The board will not evaluate, either formally or informally, any staff other than the DIRECTOR.
3. The board will view Director performance as identical to organizational performance, so that organizational accomplishment of board stated Ends and avoidance of board proscribed means will be viewed as successful Director performance. Revised July 2003 Adopted January 2000 Monitoring Method: Board self-assessment Monitoring Frequency: Bi-Annually in January & June |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| BDL-4 POLICY
TITLE: Delegation to the Director The board will instruct the Director through written policies which prescribe the organizational Ends to be achieved, and describe organizational situations and actions to be avoided, allowing the DIRECTOR to use any reasonable interpretation of these policies. Accordingly: 1. The board will develop policies instructing the DIRECTOR to achieve certain results, for certain recipients at a specified cost. These policies will be developed systematically from the broadest; most general level to more defined levels, and will be called Ends policies. 2. The board will develop policies that limit the latitude the DIRECTOR may exercise in choosing the organizational means. These policies will be developed systematically from the broadest, most general level to more defined levels, and they will be called Executive Limitations policies. 3. As long as the DIRECTOR uses any reasonable interpretation of the board’s Ends and Executive Limitations policies, the DIRECTOR is authorized to establish all further policies, make all decisions, take all actions, establish all practices and develop all activities. 4. The board may change its Ends and Executive Limitations policies, thereby shifting the boundary between board and DIRECTOR domains. By doing so, the board changes the latitude of choice given to the DIRECTOR. But as long as any particular delegation is in place, the board will respect and support the Director’s choices. Adopted January 2000 Monitoring Method: Board self-assessment Monitoring Frequency: Bi-Annually in January & June |

| BDL-5 POLICY
TITLE: Monitoring Director Performance Systematic and rigorous monitoring of DIRECTOR job performance will be solely against organizational accomplishment of board policies on Ends and organizational operation within the boundaries established in board policies on Executive Limitations. Accordingly: 1. Monitoring is simply to determine the degree to which board policies are being met. 2. The board will acquire monitoring data by one or more of three methods: (A)By internal report, in which the DIRECTOR discloses compliance information to the board, (B) By external report, in which an external, disinterested third party selected by the board assesses compliance with board policies, and (C) By direct board inspection, in which a designated member or members of the board assess compliance with the appropriate policy criteria. 3. In every case, the standard for compliance shall be any reasonable DIRECTOR interpretation of the board policy being monitored. The board is final arbiter of reasonableness, but will always judge with a “reasonable person” test rather than with interpretations favored by board members or by the board as a whole. 4. All policies that instruct the DIRECTOR will be monitored at a frequency and by a method chosen by the board. The board can monitor any policy at any time by any method, but will ordinarily depend on a routine schedule.
