Clarifying roles and boundaries

Created: December 17, 2020 at 11:42 AM | Updated: October 6, 2023 | By NZ Navigator Trust

The division of roles and responsibilies in community organisations can be difficult to clearly define, and can vary significantly from one organisation to the next.

This resource will help you determine how the division of roles works best in your organisation. 

The essential distinctions between these roles are:

  • the role of the governance team is to lead, direct and ensure the organisation operates effectively; and
  • the role of the staff is to manage, implement and carry out work that helps the organisation achieve its mission/overall purpose.
