Description

The Smithsonian Institution’s governing body, the Board of Regents, has developed a set of actions to address governance and accountability breakdowns that came to light in 2007. These actions were aimed at problems in three main areas: (1) executive compensation, benefits, ethics, and operational policies and controls; (2) flow of information to the Board, transparency of Board operations, and relationship with stakeholders; and (3) the Board’s responsibilities, structure, and performance. The author was asked to assess the extent of the Board’s progress in each of these areas. Includes recommendations. Charts and tables.
