I am pleased to see that the WMF notes that term limits "are recommended by Compass Partnership for WMUK's Board" and has taken this into account, even though the conclusion is that the WMF board prefers to not be bound by "a hard rule". The UK Chapter appreciated this recommendation from Compass which re-enforced the board's past discussions in this area, and personally I would hope to see this pass as a change to process in our next general meeting or as advised by our Governance Committee. I would recommend this improvement to every maturing Chapter, the WMF board, and every other long term management board, as our collective demonstration that we are fully committed to adopting charity best practice in our governance processes.
