Advice to the Executive
Director is an informal perspective on life with a
governance board. It was prepared in April 2001 for the
Executive Director, new at the time, and was copied to the
Board with its newly-elected members. Its purpose was to
communicate ideas and advice about how the Executive Director
can support the fundamental role and responsibilities of a
governance Board of Directors.
Orientation 2002 will be
presented at the meeting (here's the 1.7Mb powerpoint file, if you have PowerPoint
-- it's maybe faster to download the file and view it on your
machine).
Operations and Future
Operations is a
briefing on NCF today and plans for the future, and will be
presented at the meeting. This presentation includes photos
(worth a thousand words!) of NCF's offices and equipment.
Please note that items 1, 2, and 6 will not be presented at
the meeting and should be read prior to the meeting.
The above files are most easily accessed when Carleton
University's internet connection (used by NCF) is not congested
(eg., early morning). Refer to
Carleton Internet Traffic Graphs for current information.
