A board of directors is a body of elected or appointed members who jointly oversee the activities of a company or organization. Other names include board of governors, board of managers, board of regents, board of trustees, and board of visitors. It may also be called "the executive board" and is often simply referred to as "the board".
A board's activities are determined by the powers, duties, and responsibilities delegated to it or conferred on it by an authority outside itself. These matters are typically detailed in the organization's bylaws. The bylaws commonly also specify the number of members of the board, how they are to be chosen, and when they are to meet. However, these bylaws rarely address a board's powers when faced with a corporate turnaround or restructuring, where board members need to act as agents of change in addition to their traditional fiduciary responsibilities.
In an organization with voting members, the board acts on behalf of, and is subordinate to, the organization's full group, which usually chooses the members of the board. In a stock corporation, the board is elected by the shareholders and is the highest authority in the management of the corporation. In a non-stock corporation with no general voting membership, the board is the supreme governing body of the institution; its members are sometimes chosen by the board itself.

Plot: Change Comes Knocking is the tumultuous story of a bi-racial anti-poverty organization, called the North Carolina Fund (NCF) that boldly confronted the explosive issues of race, class and politics during the turbulent 1960s. In 1963, progressive North Carolina Democratic governor, Terry Sanford took an audacious step to attack the entrenched poverty he found throughout his state. The Fund directly empowered poor people, including African Americans, so they could themselves ruffle the feathers of the establishment, all too comfortable with the racial divisions that were the foundations of the economic status quo. Add to that a charismatic Fund employee named Howard Fuller, who spoke of Black Power and urged a more confrontational approach, and the backlash came swiftly.

Plot: Gwen grows up with her romantic mother constantly telling her the story of her courtship and marriage to her father. Nick grows up with an alcoholic father who can't hold a job and whose family, as a result, is forced to move all the time. The two are shaped by this - Gwen a romantic and Nick withdrawn, unsure of himself - as they watch the hugely popular sixties sitcom, "One Big Happy Family." Years later, it is the star of that show, now a child actor gone bad with a history of detox and people always saying, "I thought she was dead," Francesca Lanfield, who connects the two of them, after years of near-misses and almost encounters. Gwen is hired to ghost-write Francesca's autobiography, while Nick, becoming her lover, is the architect who is to design a building on Francesca's property. When Gwen decides to crusade to save Francesca's building, she writes letters to the newspaper which catches Nick's attention - and wins his heart.

Host: TK Kerstetter Guest: Marc Ullman, Partner with Meridian Compensation Partners Compensation specialist Ullman takes a look at recent survey results that highlight trends in board compensation. Compensation committees work hard to make sure executive compensation is fair and purposeful, but are often challenged when they analyze their own compensation. Ullman and host Kerstetter discuss how compensation committees are trending toward retainers versus meeting fees. Also, they discuss what mix of pay is appropriate... cash versus stock. And is the push for a higher equity percentage a good thing? This show also takes a look at the discrepancies between extra pay for lead directors versus non-executive chairpersons. The average variance will surprise you!

School Board member Priscilla Colbath reads a short statement related to her concern about the actions of fellow board member Steve Brown during a recent public hearing, at about 3 1/2 minutes into the video during Brown's response nobody else speaks, however it seems as if while Brown speaks he is becoming more and more aggitated to the point of being very angry about being picked on or being denied his rights. Bullys and people with such an inability to be civil at least during meetings do not belong in public office.
