Rachel Titchen and Gail Cunningham have moved on to the second principle – Leadership. In this principle, they explore how to adopt a delegation framework that best aligns the charity’s investment to their purpose. There’s a focus on understanding that all trustees are jointly responsible for the decisions made around investments and that in some cases it might be appropriate to create investment sub-committees and/or professional providers to support the Trustees.
