Governance as Leadership: Understanding the Three Modes and Their Strategic Application
Governance as Leadership, by Chait, Ryan, and Taylor, challenges us to rethink the role of Boards of Directors beyond oversight and control. At the heart of their proposal lies institutional purpose, understood as both a strategic guide and a source of meaning. This approach invites boards to lead with vision, take an active role in transforming their organizations, and act consistently with the social impact they seek to achieve.
This document adopts that perspective and links it to the current challenges facing Habitat for Humanity as a global network, offering a foundation to strengthen the leadership of governing bodies through the shared purpose that unites them.
