In a joint venture with FWB Park Brown, we are proud to offer this programme of events for the 7th year running.
The programme once again focuses on current challenges facing boards and NXDs. This year, the series includes evolving technologies such as AI, risk assessment, climate change and sustainability, compliance and performance evaluation.
Each session is highly practical. Led by experienced Chairs and NXDs, it is aimed at those interested in all types and sizes of organisation including listed, private, entrepreneurial, SMEs, public sector and not-for-profit.
We welcome back previous delegates to discuss the latest insights as well as those looking to understand more about the role of a non-executive director.
If you are going to make just one investment in your personal development this year, choose this programme. It is led by leading Chairs and NXDs at the top of their game and crucially who are willing to share their knowledge and experiences. The structured format delivers relevant, concentrated insights and the online format offers maximum efficiency. Finally, you will never conclude a session without the opportunity to connect offline with experienced fellow participants.2023 delegate
