Abstract:
As part of our series of commentaries to commemorate ADEE's 50th anniversary, we take a few moments to reflect on how changes in the regulation of the charity sector in Ireland and further afield have influenced the evolution of the ADEE Secretary General role. The impact of this evolution, we suggest, sees the operations of ADEE evolve through three distinct phases or eras of volunteerism, professionalisation, and regulation. We briefly reflect on each of these phases and discuss how these, in turn, have led to changes in governance structures and the evolution of the Secretary General role.
