The Roles
We have built six common board-related roles into BoardPro:
Chair: Full access to everything in BoardPro. We could not imagine a chair would want any restrictions on them, so they can do anything.
Administrator: 90% access to everything in BoardPro. Usually the product champion and the local, in-house expert. Cannot see or access Board Only folders* (*if the Admin is also a Board Member they can update Board Only Folders)
Board secretary: Access to everything in BoardPro. This person may or may not be a board member, but is often the one whom tasks are delegated to. Is able to manage Board Only folders.
Board Member: Mostly read-only Can update actions/interests
Senior Executive: information restrictions in place -Can add/edit meetings
Executive / Guest: highly restricted. Appears on the agenda/minutes but has no document access across BoardPro.
What is restricted?
The restrictions are in four main areas:
Settings of BoardPro itself
Being able to read and edit the agendas and minutes of meetings
Ability to upload and download the Governance Documents
Being able to read and edit Action items and Interests (everyone can always update the status of their own actions, and interests some can update others as well).
