Board
of Management
The
Board of Management is comprised of people who love their community and wish
to help develop our community’s private enterprise.
The Board includes people who have strong
business backgrounds, have backgrounds in the arts, in education, in government;
in short, diversified backgrounds. These
citizens of Tuscola County have joined the Board of Management to offer their personal skills
wherever
they may be needed.
The
members of the Board of Management have been trained by the Sirolli
Institute in Ernesto Sirolli’s “trinity of management”, in client
confidentiality, and in the role of the Enterprise Facilitator.
The members of the Board strongly believe in Enterprise Facilitation
and each is committed to supporting the Enterprise Facilitator in whatever he
may need. The Board provides a base
of support for the Facilitator, at the ready when the Facilitator needs a
certain skill or knowledge to help a client reach his or her goals. The
facilitator reports to the Board once a month on the progress of clients.
