SUMMARY:Governance Round Table - Confident Board Oversight of the Finances
DESCRIPTION:What exactly is the board’s role in oversight of the finances? What are Treasurers actually responsible for\, and how is that different from other board members?

SUMMARY:Governance Round Table
DESCRIPTION:Governance Round Table sessions \nTopic: Boards Getting Real About Strategy\nWhen: Tuesday 4th August 2020 5:15pm to 7:15pm\nWhere: NMIT\nCost: Free event – registration required\nPLACES LIMITED (15 max) \n\nEveryone wants to be strategic these days. It is used to refer to deceit and trickery in reality TV. As an adjective it makes any object or activity sound very important. But does it actually have any practical meaning left? What is a strategy and how is it different from a plan? Where does most strategy come from\, and what is a realistic approach to developing a strategy for our organisation? And what really is the Board’s role in strategy (especially where there also is staff)?\n\nThis session will be led by Garth Nowland-Foreman\, an experienced trainer and facilitator\, and non-profit governance expert. Garth is a director of the LEAD Centre for Not for Profit Governance & Leadership www.lead.org.nz\, and led the recent Governance Bites series in Nelson.
