GOVERNANCE
The Partnership
In 2001, CANARI established an experimental internal operating structure, the Partnership, designed to more effectively leverage the collective skills of elected Board members and senior staff and improve the working relationship between the two groups. Under the Partnership structure, Board members are designated as “Elected Partners”, the Executive Director as “Managing Partner”, and senior technical staff with management responsibilities can be appointed as “Staff Partners.”
Partners have collective responsibility for oversight of the Institute and for ensuring the appropriate use of the Institute’s funds. Elected Partners are authorised to represent the Institute with the approval of the Managing Partner. CANARI will continue to test and refine the Partnership concept.
The current Partners are:
- Cletus Springer, Chair
- Zakiya Uzoma-Wadada, Secretary/Treasurer
- Felix Finisterre, Elected Partner
- Lisa James, Elected Partner
- Patrick McConney, Elected Partner
- Franklin McDonald, Elected Partner
- LaVerne Ragster, Elected Partner
- Aleyda Capella, Elected Partner
- Nicole Leotaud, Managing Partner
