Opening with a crystal-clear, eminently practical definition of the work of governing that goes well-beyond the outdated notion of \"policy making,\" this exciting new book then takes a close look at the key elements involved in building the kind of rock-solid board-superintendent governing partnership that these changing, challenging times demand. After describing the critical role of a \"board-savvy\" superintendent in the governing partnership, Doug examines in detail how board-superintendent teams can go about developing the board's governing \"architecture\" (the board's governing role, its members, and its committee structure), mapping out processes for active board member engagement in governing work, and keeping the board-superintendent working relationship healthy.
