Director and Executive Liability: Understanding and Managing Personal Exposure (Webinar)
Date: 01 Oct 2026
Thursday 1 October | 1:00–2:00PM AEST | Online | Recorded
Presented by Law Compliance | FREE to attend
Directors and senior leaders of community organisations make important decisions every day—but when might those decisions, or a failure to act, expose them to personal liability?
Presented by Law Compliance in partnership with the Institute of Community Directors Australia, this practical webinar will explore:
- how personal liability can arise;
- who may be considered an officer or senior manager;
- key case studies, penalties and statutory defences;
- the role and limitations of directors’ and officers’ insurance; and
- practical steps community organisations and their leaders can take to reduce their exposure.
Designed for board members, executives, senior managers, and governance, risk and compliance professionals across the not-for-profit and community sectors, the webinar will explain how effective oversight, compliance systems, training and record-keeping can help manage personal and organisational risk.
