Why You Should Attend

ON DEMAND VIRTUAL - Boardroom Masterclass

The board of directors is a fundamental element of corporations worldwide. Often, though, “best practices” for boards remain undeveloped, poorly implemented, and sometimes even subverted.  This course delivers an intense two-day training seminar on the tools you will need to shape your board into a powerful, professional fiduciary.  You will review the codes of governance best practice that have been developed by national, regional and global authorities.  You will learn the elements of effective boards, including leadership, structure, membership, organization, legal duties, and building positive boardroom chemistry.  Best of all, Mr. Ward chairs “virtual board” meetings with your class, as you join to work out solutions to actual governance problems that face real boards of directors.
