Association governance models
There are two governance models out there for associations: the board-governed and -managed model, or so-called volunteer-run (VR) type; and the board-/management-delineated model, or the “volunteer-driven, staff-run” (VDSR) one. In the United States the second model is predominant, while here in the Philippines, it is the first, based on a preliminary survey by the Philippine Council of Associations and Association
Executives (PCAAE).
