It must be remembered that those who serve on Boards of Directors assume a Fiduciary Responsibility to those they serve and represent. This obligation should not and cannot be taken lightly, for as a member of a Board you make decisions that affect those you govern, with financial and other implications. The most important thing to rememebr is that when you serve others and are responsible for their welfare and the community in which they live, what may be to your benefit or good for you, may not be so for those you represent. Your obligation is not to yourself but to the homeowners and residents you serve.
