Chairing The Board

Check the Events Directory for our next course.

Overview

It’s generally accepted that the role of the chair is to ensure that the board is effective in its task of setting and implementing an organisation’s direction and strategy.

In reality, the chair’s role is much more than that.

The chair is the ringmaster, the meeting facilitator, the mentor and leader of others, the expert guide, the culture-setter and guardian of effective decision-making.

This virtual workshop is ideal for anyone currently in a chair’s role or looking to step into one.

Some of the topics covered include:

role and characteristics of a meeting chair

types of meetings and the core documents

managing conflicts of interest

overcoming conscious and unconscious bias

leading the decision-making process

identifying board dynamics and resolving conflict

inducting new board/committee members

governance versus management
