Abstract
I attended a four hour key member meeting on Friday, December 1, in Atlanta and then a two-hour review with some members on Saturday afternoon, December 2, in Atlanta. My goal was to see what the trustees could do to help The Academy. My reading of many books on "Boards" did not yield much specific help, as almost all were written for the private sector. The one book that was not for the private sector assumed that the organization had a full-time and paid staff, which is far from what our organization has or ever will have. Your responses on my questionnaire also helped me come to the conclusion that coincides with a comment written by Ed Coffman: "We must find a way for each member of the Trustees to participate in the current activities of The Academy." This is probably also true of our past trustees.
