Committees are supposed to make your club run better, so why are they so often the No. 1 governance headache boards and GMs bring up? This 60-minute session breaks down several industry best practices to use as a practical playbook to take back to your club.
What we'll cover:
- Where committees actually fit in your club's governance structure — and why they're advisors, not decision-makers.
- The right number and size of committees (hint: most clubs land between six and 10).
- How to select committee chairs and members without just taking volunteers.
- What belongs in a strong committee charter and why less detail is often better than more.
- And other key best practices
Key takeaways attendees walk away with:
- A clear mental model for where committees sit in the governance framework.
- A committee charter checklist they can apply immediately.
- Guidance on chair/member selection and term limits that reduces politics and burnout.
- A framework for evaluating committee performance ("you have to measure it to manage it”).
- Clarity on how to align committee reporting lines with board vs. management functions.
