Characteristics of High Performing Boards – latest trends

Overview

The pandemic, technology, greater focus on ESG, the rise of Nextgen boards and a range of social and other forces are changing Board practice and behavior in a number of ways. Especially in relation to decision making.

The Good Governance Academy has secured Patrick Dunne for a limited number of sessions for individual boards to explore how these themes might affect their Boards and organizations.

 

Suitable for those across the business, public and social sector of all sizes these sessions will be highly participative and grounded in looking at the characteristics of high performing boards and how they are dealing with these issues.

 

These sessions would be ideal for a pre board dinner or lunch session or a board awayday.

 

Fees will vary depending upon the scale and nature of organizations. If you are interested in exploring whether you would like to invite Patrick to do one for you board please contact [GGA contact].
