Welcome to our Not-For-Profit Governance Bytes Workshop series for 2024/2025
The mission of LEAD is to build the capacity of our sector through leadership development, and strengthening not-for-profit Boards and Committees is an important part of the strategy.
Training is for existing or prospective boards of not for profit and community organisations.
These workshops can be taken as standalone ‘Bytes’ or you can register for the whole series. You will attain the following skills:
- Gain a good understanding of what effective governance looks like and how to develop it in your boards
- Develop clarity about governance processes and the boards relationships with the staff and volunteers in your organisation
- Be upd to date on your legal obligations both individually and collectively
- Grow your ability to think and act strategically as leaders within the organisation and gather practical tools and tips to streamline meetings, events and Board processes
- Meet others who are serving on boards all around Aotearoa
On these virtual, live workshops with LEAD NFP governance experts you will learn with and from others on boards, ask relevant questions and apply what you are learning in the real world of your not for profit organisation.
