ABOUT OREA GOVERNANCE
When we think about governance, we are not just thinking about our structure and our bylaws – we take a broader view: how do we as a group of people make decisions together? This review will certainly be looking at our structure and our bylaws but we will also be looking at:
- Who are our “members” and who do we serve?
- How do we engage with members, how do members want to be engaged?
- What are the most critical things that members need and that OREA is in the best position to provide?
- How the Board functions, its composition and how it can become more effective?
- The relationship between management and the Board and how we can ensure it is collaborative and high-
performing? - The type of people and types of skills we are attracting to play key leadership roles at OREA – from the Assembly,
to the Board, to senior management and throughout the organization? - The quality of key stakeholders relationships and how we should be engaging with these stakeholders?
