GBC (Governing Body Commission)

The Governing Body Commission (GBC) is a governing structure used by some organizations, particularly nonprofit and religious groups, to oversee leadership and decision-making. It typically consists of a group of selected members who collectively set policies, ensure accountability, and guide the organization’s direction. The GBC functions as a strategic oversight body, making high-level decisions while delegating day-to-day operations to staff or other committees. Its purpose is to promote transparency, shared leadership, and adherence to the organization’s mission and principles.
