The Engaged & Accountable Board: One-Day Essentials

Tired of meetings that meander? Decisions that drift? Actions that disappear?

This intensive, peer-coaching workshop transforms the way trustees and chairs work and makes ‘boardroom effectiveness’ a reality! In just one day, you will move from strategy fog to crystal clarity, from endless discussion to decisive action.

What Makes This Different?

This isn't theory—it's practical transformation. You will work alongside fellow Trustees, Directors and Leaders to build real tools for your real board challenges, tailored to your charity's context and ready to implement immediately.

You will leave with five powerful governance tools:

• Strategy-on-a-Page that turns mission into actionable priorities
• Board Communication Charter that eliminates confusion and boosts engagement
• Accountability Map & Decision Register that ensures nothing falls through the cracks

• 90-Day Board Sprint Plan with owners, milestones, and accountability partners
