Effective governance is critical to the success of any association. While association boards can be very different from corporate boards, they essentially serve the same purpose in setting the strategic direction for the association and measuring its progress. Ensuring that your board is well-structured, strategically focused, and aligned with the association’s goals can significantly enhance its effectiveness.
Join Rennie Schafer, CEO of the Federation of European Self Storage Associations (FEDESSA) and the Self Storage Association UK, as he shares insights from over 30 years of experience working with association boards across three continents. Through real-world case studies and best practices, this seminar will help you to transition your board into a focussed, strategically minded group providing real value to your association while empowering the management team to advance the organisation.
Key Topics Covered:
- Keeping the board strategically focussed rather than operational
- Separation of duties between board and staff/volunteers
- Creating effective sub-committees for specialised tasks
- Optimising board structure, size and representation
- Developing a structured induction process for new board members
- Identifying and recruiting the right individuals for the board
This seminar is designed for association executives, board members, and governance professionals looking to enhance board efficiency and drive organisational success.
