ORGANIZATIONAL RESOURCES
In our continuing focus on Good Governance, we are exploring different governance models. Typically, non-profit boards follow one of five different governance approaches: Advisory Board Model; Patron Model; Co-operative Model; Management Team Model; or, Policy Board Model.

So how do you know which governance model is right for your board? Check out the Different Governance Models section on the SaskCulture website to learn more about each of these governance models and which is right for your organization. Written by Nathan Garber of Nathan Garber & Associates, the information also includes a list of questions designed to help determine whether you need to change your governance model and if your board and organization have the necessary commitment and resources to accomplish it successfully.
