Board Members Need to Understand Governance to do their job correctly
This course covers the most important issues that come with serving on a board, whether corporate, non-profit or as a volunteer. In my 20+ years of speaking professionally on governance to a variety of boards, I continue to see examples of what not to do. With this course I want to give you the necessary information to not make mistakes and not get in trouble. Important things like a members' legal responsibilities is not common knowledge to most. You may do something completely ordinary and not realize you are violating your duty as a board member. For example, a 'parking lot meeting.'
This course covers every major topic you need to practice good governance. The course is comprised of 11 lectures divided into 3 sections. At the end of each section is a quiz that will help you retain the information you just learned.
Each lecture contains a video of me talking and many lectures have slides accompanying the material. Learning resources for the course are a workbook (PDF) and Part 1 of my book (PDF), Basic Board Governance, which this course is based on.
When you have finished this course, you will be a better board member and understand what it will take to stay out of trouble.
Know your rights, duties & stay out of trouble.
