Advanced Governance Webinar
Being Strategic
TUESDAY 13TH AUGUST, 2024
11:00 AM - 12:30 PM AEST
Take the tired conventions of boardroom governance and put them back on the shelf. This webinar will encourage strategic thinking in an unconventional way.
In the words of one attendee, this webinar is the place to "renew your vows", and step back into governing for your community with not just a greater depth of knowledge but a new found enthusiasm.
So ask yourself:Â Are you ready to create a future for your community that you can be excited about?
Sign up your Company Secretary, Chairs of your Board Committees, Senior Executives, and come along yourself! This is for every Director, Committee of Management member and senior executive.
Ask questions. Explore new techniques. See real life reports. Numerous useful templates and great examples provided that you can easily adapt for your own use, and for the needs of your organisation.
