Best Practice in Governance Session 3 - How to refresh your strategic focus and approach as a trustee board

This is the third session of our Best Practice in Governance learning programme.  Although it is recommended that you attend these sessions as part of a sequential series of training, it is not essential. 

This session is designed for existing trustees of organisations in Cumbria.   

Whether you are a long-serving trustee or new to the role, this interactive and informative session will help you to: 

• Gain clarity on your strategic direction by analysing your current approach and identifying priority areas for growth.
• Empower your board with proven tools and techniques to strengthen governance and decision-making.
• Reflect, reset, and reimagine your board’s potential—unlock the step change needed to move confidently into your next phase.

We advise that at least 2 members of the same board attend the session so they can do the group work together to maximize value, but this is not compulsory.  This will be a practical, online session to help improve your knowledge and understanding of governance for a small charity.
