  <title>Board Development (Personnel Committee)</title>
  <description>&#13;
Listen to this (and other material) as a podcast at www.accreditation101.com.&amp;amp;nbsp; &#13;

If you are a board member, you have a great honor, and a great responsibility.&amp;amp;nbsp; Certainly you would be volunteering your time, talent, and treasure because you see your school&amp;amp;rsquo;s ministry as something worth doing for God.&amp;amp;nbsp; Occasionally, a school has board members who are not good stewards of this important responsibility.&amp;amp;nbsp; Maybe they did not realize what they were volunteering for. &amp;amp;nbsp;Maybe they were just appointed.&amp;amp;nbsp; Maybe they don&amp;amp;rsquo;t give much time, effort, or money because they do not see service to the school as something worth doing for God, or maybe there are even occasionally members of a board who are more interested in building their own kingdom than God&amp;amp;rsquo;s kingdom.&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp; Can you see why some presidents are tempted to say, &amp;amp;ldquo;Get, give, or get off&amp;amp;rdquo;?&amp;amp;nbsp; (Get being get money.)&amp;amp;nbsp; So how does a school end up with the outstanding board members who understand their purpose and energetically fulfill their stewardship?&amp;amp;nbsp; The key can be a personnel committee that is tasked with board development.&amp;amp;nbsp; And that is the topic of chapter 8 in our board handbook.&amp;amp;nbsp; The chapter deals with how to recruit the right types of members, orienting and training them, and evaluating both the board and individual members.</description>
