Welcome to our Not-For-Profit Governance Bytes Workshop series from June 2024 to March 2025

The mission of LEAD is to build the capacity of our sector through leadership development, and strengthening not-for-profit Boards and Committees is an important part of the strategy.

Training is for existing or prospective boards of not for profit and community organisations.

These workshops can be taken as standalone ‘Bytes’ or you can register for the whole series. You will attain the following skills:

Gain a good understanding of what effective governance looks like and how to develop it in your boards
Develop clarity about governance processes and the boards relationships with the staff and volunteers in your organisation
Be upd to date on your legal obligations both individually and collectively
Grow your ability to think and act strategically as leaders within the organisation and gather practical tools and tips to streamline meetings, events and Board processes
Meet others who are serving on boards all around Aotearoa

On these virtual, live workshops with LEAD NFP governance experts you will learn with and from others on boards, ask relevant questions and apply what you are learning in the real world of your not for profit organisation.

Participants receive a certificate on completion of at least six sessions in the series. Book a single session for $69 +GST

If finance is a barrier please contact us as we have some scholarship funding available.

Enrolled participants may substitute another member of their organisation if they can’t attend. Contact us for costs if multiple people from your organisation want to enrol.
