Book synopsis

"A splendid and invaluable book, one every trustee with an active conscience would want to read and one every trustee with a dormant conscience ought to read." - Richard Chait, Center for Higher Education Governance and Leadership. "The book should be required reading for all trustees of private non-profits." - Dennis R. Young, Mandel Center for Nonprofit Organizations. "Entrusted" focuses on the moral aspects of trusteeship. It seeks to answer questions, such as these: is governance by a board of trustees the best way to oversee nonprofit institutions? What are the major duties of a trustee and what are their common problems? How should trustees be related to the rest of the organization? And what are the prime virtues of a trustee? Smith proposes three principles that should guide the work of trustees, and examines them in light of case studies of proper trusteeship and trusteeship gone wrong.
