In the same way we need to evolve our business practice to meet the challenges of our time, our approach to governance must change too. We call this evolution: Next Economy Governance.

But, when we talk about "Next Economy Governance", what do we actually mean? And, why does it matter now? And if you work at, donate to or invest in purpose-driven organisations, where do you even start?

In this free masterclass, Francie & Mele-Ane draw on over three decades of combined experience reporting to, sitting on and chairing boards, to answer these questions and counter common myths and misconceptions around governance of purpose-driven organisations!

If you want to dive even deeper, join us in our next Next Economy Governance Deep Dive. Find out more about it and secure your spot here. Small Giants Academy - Next Economy Governance program
