Many boards fall into the trap of reviewing reports and activity rather than making strategic choices that create the future.
Join BoardPro and Community Directors for this webinar which will help your board meetings go from simple status updates to strategic conversations.
At this webinar, you'll learn how to:
- Craft a board agenda
- Develop board reports
- Lift the quality of your discussions
- Sharpen your strategic lens
- Create a meeting environment where insight, foresight and high-value decisions become the norm
- Shift from passive oversight to energetic exploration, driving vision and genuine strategic impact.
The session is based on practical examples of many high-performance boards. You'll leave with actionable steps and templates that could transform your board meetings immediately.
This 1 hour webinar will be held live and free on Thursday 12 March from 1:00pm to 2:00pm AEDT.
