In association with Volunteering Canterbury, LEAD Director Garth Nowland-Foreman hosts monthly Governance Bites sessions.

These are a series of free after-five events, offering practical development opportunities in bite-sized pieces for time poor and cash-strapped community leaders, served up with pizza.

This month’s topic is: Non-Profit Boards Adding Value.

What’s the secret to Governance that really makes a difference for a non-profit organisation? In this interactive session, you will learn how your Board can be less boring, and achieve more than just going through the motions or check up on what others are doing. Two important tools are offered to make this possible, which provide the foundation for all the following Governance Bites in this series. Believe it or not this doesn’t involve a call for greater commitment or doing more and more work as Board members.

When: 5:15pm – 7:00pm, Tuesday 15 June
Venue: Christchurch Community House, 301 Tuam Street, Christchurch
Cost: No charge thanks to generosity of Rata Foundation
RSVP: outreach@volcan.org.nz. Please note, while the Governance Bites workshops run as a series, each session can be attended as a standalone workshop if desired. Please indicate which session/s you are interested in when registering.
