Management
The Writers' Trust of Canada is run by a board of directors composed of volunteers from the arts and business communities, and counseled by a volunteer Authors' Advisory Group of writers from across the country. Six staff members see to the day to day operations out of a downtown Toronto office shared with the Writers' Union of Canada.
Juries are composed of writers who were recommended by The Authors’ Committee; invitations are issued by the administrative staff based upon these recommendations.

Famous quotes containing the word management:
“This we take it is the grand characteristic of our age. By our skill in Mechanism, it has come to pass, that in the management of external things we excel all other ages; while in whatever respects the pure moral nature, in true dignity of soul and character, we are perhaps inferior to most civilised ages.”
—Thomas Carlyle (1795–1881)
“People have described me as a “management bishop” but I say to my critics, “Jesus was a management expert too.””
—George Carey (b. 1935)
“No officer should be required or permitted to take part in the management of political organizations, caucuses, conventions, or election campaigns. Their right to vote and to express their views on public questions, either orally or through the press, is not denied, provided it does not interfere with the discharge of their official duties. No assessment for political purposes on officers or subordinates should be allowed.”
—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
