委员会是一群被正式授权履行某种职能的人，如调查、考虑、报告或对某件事采取行动。有些委员会的职能类似于工作队，负责具体的、有时限的项目。当工作完成后，委员会就不再需要了。这些委员会称为特设委员会。其他委员会为常设委员会。它们是由一个组织的常规、规则、章程或条例创建的，并且无限期地存在和运作（例如，财务、会员资格、教育、提名）。如果工作量繁重或性质复杂，这两类委员会都可以成立小组委员会。委员会可以是一个组织中最重要的工作力量之一。他们作为组织的工作单位，承担工作并将其分解为有意义和可管理的块。他们有效地开展了组织的工作。委员会的工作对成员和本组织都应是有益的经历。委员会代表、参与和服务成员，并为组织未来的领导者提供重要的培训基地。新成员或没有经验的成员可以通过在委员会任职获得对组织的宝贵见解并建立信心。有效的委员会有几个关键要素，包括（1）明确的书面目的;（2）有效的委员会主席;（3）深思熟虑的成员;（4）良好的会议。
A committee is a group of people officially delegated to perform a function, such as investigating, considering, reporting, or acting on a matter. Some committees function like task forces and work on specific, time-limited projects. When the work is finished, the committees are no longer needed. These committees are called ad hoc committees. Other committees are standing committees. They are created by the standing orders, rules, by-laws, or regulations of an organization and exist and function indefinitely (eg, finance, membership, education, nomination). Both types of committees can form subcommittees if the workloads are heavy or complex in nature. Committees can be among the most important working forces of an organization. They serve as work units of the organization, taking work and breaking it into meaningful and manageable chunks. They efficiently carry out the work of the organization. Committee work should be a rewarding experience for both the members and the organization. Committees represent, involve, and serve members, as well as provide an important training ground for future leaders of an organization. New or inexperienced members can gain valuable insight into an organization and develop confidence by serving on committees. There are several key elements of effective committees, including (1) a clear, written purpose; (2) an effective committee chair; (3) thoughtfully appointed members; and (4) well-run meetings.
