The Nonprofit FAQ

What is the role of the executive director?

The Free Management Library provides a "defnition" of the executive director, lists general responsibilities, provides a sample job description, and suggests what knowledge and skills are required to be a competent executive director. See http://www.mapnp.org/library/chf_exec/chf_exec.htm Further discussions of the role and responsibilities of executive directors are listed in the FAQ index at http://www.idealist.org/en/faqcat/6-2 Posted 8/19/99 -- CM
