Ensuring that the community you represent has a voice within your board is a critical part of maintaining legitimate governance for your organisation. This workshop will explore models for ensuring that community voice is an effective part of the decision-making framework that your board uses.
This workshop will cover:
• The benefits of having people with lived experience on your board
• Models of two-way governance
• Making board meetings inclusive and having every opportunity to succeed
• Communication tools to support full participation
• Putting people at ease with meetings outside the boardroom
• Establishing user-led committees to represent all voices of service users, not only one person.
• Recruiting and onboarding board members with lived experience
