Corporate governance in the nonprofit sector : a grounded theory approach to studying the trustee boardDexter, George January 2018 (has links)
This thesis uses a constructivist grounded theory approach to investigate nonprofit corporate governance in the UK; using data obtained from participatory observations of board and associated meetings, workshops, and unstructured elite interviews. Open codes are generated and brought together as concepts, which are then iteratively compared and grouped in open categories. These categories are then reassembled using the paradigm model into five axial codes: the clash of orthodoxies; clash of motivations; regulator versus board power; clash of rationalities; and effective board duality. A dialectical approach is then used to create the core category of the ‘clash of neoliberal and public service world views which exists at every level of the nonprofit sector’. This core category is analysed in terms of the subordinate contradictions: at an environmental level - regulatory power versus sector power; at board level - accountability; the SMT; board practices and rituals (professionalism, actual and symbolic authority, boards meetings as theatre, and ethical standards); the concept of challenge as an expression of power relations; and rationality and decision making; and at the individual level - motivations of directors, moral duty and social purpose, social group membership, identification, credibility and trust. The substantive theory is then situated within psychology, governance, and corporate governance theories. The contribution made by the thesis are identified as the: use of ethnography to describe the inner workings of the board; creation of a model of nonprofit corporate governance; identification of the importance of political, ideological, regulatory, and ethical contexts; and concept of power, and the senior management team as a component of the board. Further research is suggested into: (i) a comparison of corporate governance in the for-profit and nonprofit sectors; (ii) challenge within the nonprofit culture; and (iii) the SMT as a major player in governance.

The role of the senior management team in managing outcomes-based assessmentSaib, Mariam 30 June 2004 (has links)
Assessment is an integral component of outcomes-based education which requires a paradigm shift in assessment processes. Outcomes-based assessment is more intense than traditional assessment since it reports on many dimensions of performance. Performance is analysed in relation to outcomes and the learning demonstrated and record-keeping is more complex. This study explored the experiences of the Senior Management Team and Foundation Phase educators of a selected primary school regarding outcomes-based education, outcomes-based assessment and its management. A literature review of outcomes-based education, outcomes-based assessment and instructional leadership and an empirical study using a qualitative approach were conducted. Document analysis and semi-structured interviews with educators and school management were used for data-gathering. Findings indicated that the initial implementation of outcomes-based education was problematic, however, effective instructional leadership had improved educators' understanding and implementation of assessment. Thereafter recommendations were made for the improvement of practice. / Educational Studies / Thesis (M.Ed.)

The management of an information technology infrastructure in schools in the Western Cape Province / Bestuur van rekenaar tegnologie in skole van die Wes Kaapse Onderwys DepartementPerkins, Catharina Elizabetha 11 1900 (has links)
This research conceptualises IT infrastructure management at secondary
schools in the WCED (Western Cape Education Department). This includes
whether or not secondary schools in the WCED make use of a full time, on-site
network administrator or whether a teacher acts as on-site network
administrator. The literature review studied the effectiveness of IT infrastructure
management which includes hardware, software, policies, computer network,
security; staff management and BYOD (bring your own device). The
management of IT infrastructure at secondary schools within the WCED differs
widely from school to school, and its functionality depends on many factors.
The quantitative study revealed problem areas within IT infrastructure
management at secondary schools in the WCED. Furthermore the quantitative
study also revealed that there is a need for best practice guidelines with
regards to IT infrastructure management in order to improve service delivery.
The literature review provided sources for best practice IT infrastructure
management. / Rekenaar infrastruktuur by sekondere skole in die WKOD (Wes Kaapse
Onderwys Departement) word in die navorsing beskryf. Die studie ondersoek
verskillende strukture naamlike skole wat 'n voltydse netwerk administrateur het
en skole waar 'n onderwyser die verantwoordelikheid aanneem van 'n netwerk
administrateur. Die effektiewe beheer van rekenaar infrastrukture word
bespreek. Dit sluit hardeware, sagteware, beleid formulasie, rekenaar netwerk,
sekuriteit, personeel bestuur, en BYOD (bring jou eie toestel). Die bestuur van
rekenaar infrastruktuur verskil van skool tot skool en die effektiewe bestuur
daarvan word deur baie faktore beinvloed. Die kwantitatiewe studie het
probleem areas vir die bestuur van rekenaar infrastruktuur by sekondere skole in
die WKOD uitgewys. Die kwantitatiewe studie het verder die behoefte vir beste
praktyk riglyne uitgewys om sodoende better dienslewering te verseker. Die
literere studie het beste praktyk riglyne vir rekenaar infrastruktuur bestuur
genoem. / Educational Leadership and Management
