Course overview
Listen and learn from the real-world stories of our facilitators on how they have successfully navigated the boardroom.
Explore the role of the company director and the board’s vital contribution towards organisational culture and sustainable governance. This course draws on theory, practice and the collective knowledge of the participants to simulate the boardroom experience.
Support your understanding of the role of the director and the board with a focus on the soft skills required to be an effective director in the boardroom environment.
Uniquely based around one hypothetical case study to support your practical learning, our Effective Director Course gives you the unique opportunity to practice your director questioning skills, explore effective board and executive engagement and view the inner workings of a board.
