104 Board Governance

Course Description:

What is the true job of a governing board? How can board and staff members effectively fulfill this job? This symposium focuses on the principles of effective group leadership that help boards define and focus on their work while empowering and energizing staff to get the work delegated done. The session presents an integrated model for systematic and comprehensive clarity of roles and accountabilities. 

It addresses effective delegation, the role and responsibility of the board, board composition and structure, the conduct of board members (including conflict of interest), the relationship between the board and chief executive, recruiting and retaining board members, and the assessment/evaluation of the effectiveness of the board. 

Bill Charney, CEO/principal consultant of Charney Associates. Charney is a highly respected consultant in leadership and governance education for boards of directors and the agencies they lead.
