As a proud trustee of World Villages for Children UK and a regular consultant to the voluntary sector, welcome to my Charity Governance or Management guide and activity sheet. It's to help boards and smaller charities think about how to distinguish between management and governance roles. There are some scenarios to get you thinking.

I don't believe there is a blueprint for getting it right! Each charity differs from every other - in size, operating model, purpose, resources... some entirely volunteer-led, some with paid staff, some well-established, some very new.

However you work, there are a few principles to think about. It's not so much about dividing up the work, although that might come out of it, it's more about which hat you are wearing for any given action or responsibility.
