May’s edition of G&L focuses on co-leadership, with case studies from three charities that have appointed co-chief executives, including one (Womankind Worldwide) which also boasts co-chairs.
We also have a strategy article examining the merger of 360Giving and Funders Together, a case study about setting up a new charity from scratch in just three months, and a piece examining how boards can benefit from encouraging their “governance person” to study for an apprenticeship qualification.
The Charity Commission’s regular column gets a revamp, with officials now answering reader queries, and the first one is about handling a conflict of interest that arose when a board wanted to buy some fundraising merchandise from a company owned by the chair’s husband.
The Core Functions theme is property, where we take a practical look at what really happens when a charity closes a head office, especially the hidden tech and data side that’s often left until last. And in the Final Word, regular columnist Penny Wilson offers some top tips for helping charity governance to get “unstuck”.
