What are some typical board committees?

Summary:

Committees are used for many types of activities. Some committees are 'standing committees' which are ongoing, and some are 'ad hoc' that exist to achieve a certain goal.

The Free Management Library lists some common standing committees at http://www.mapnp.org/library/boards/brdcmtte.htm#anchor20699 and ad hoc committees at http://www.mapnp.org/library/boards/brdcmtte.htm#anchor23941
