As President of your school’s Board of Trustees, you are always mindful of the need to perpetuate Board memory—historical information about the Board’s operations and activities. Even with reasonably effective new-member orientation and continuing, annual professional development of the Board, turnover will mean that, in a few years, the majority of the Board will rely on second-hand information about “how the Board does things.” That is, Trustees will not have experienced the passage of some pivotal Board policies and/or a discussion about the Board’s strategic operation. When they join the Board, the new Trustees will be relying on what they “heard” from the more experienced Board members.
