abstract: Changes in the professional, social, and political environment have influenced the scope of trustees' decision-making authority and are making it necessary for boards to assert the authority they have always had but have rarely used. Centers of decision-making control have been shifting in all areas of governance responsibility--medicine, money, management, planning, and public policy.
