Workshop
3
CPD
A practical, interactive workshop exploring the four pillars and best practice governance.
This session is designed to assist the development of emerging directors by an introduction to governance. On completion, participants will have a sound fundamental understanding of governance best practice which should boost confidence to undertake more formal director training such as the Essentials one-day courses for aspiring and new directors.
Drinks and canapes will be served.
Objective
The objective of the session is to build governance awareness in an interactive environment. Experienced directors will guide discussions around the Four Pillars of Governance Best Practice.
Preparation
A workbook will be emailed two weeks prior and it is expected that each participant will familiarise themselves with the reading and exercises around each of the Pillars (please bring your workbook – either electronic or hardcopy – to the session). Additional online reading will be recommended, and it will be assumed you have read and considered this also.
Book prize
A book prize will be given to the person who best answers the questions around Pillar Four.
Who should register?
The workshop is ideally suited for mid to senior-level executives and new directors on commercial, not-for-profit (NFP) and Crown-owned boards. It will provide a unique opportunity to learn from a number of New Zealand’s senior director practitioners, share experience and network with other like-minded business people. You should ideally have some governance experience but not have completed any of the IoD governance development courses.
Size
The session is limited to 28 participants, working with four senior directors as facilitators.
