Hello Jeanette

We are working with Andy Burman, a highly respected CEO of the BDA, to bring you a Masterclass on how you can get better volunteers to be board members and association leaders. He has produced a programme for his own association and is working with other membership bodies.

We have put together an online Masterclass next month as part of our Association Leadership offering, which will help you in developing the same programme for your own association. Please take a look at the details below and email me at damian.hutt@associationexecutives.org if you want to discuss any aspects of this.

If you face challenges finding suitable members to take on leadership & board roles? Does your association struggle to find members who understand corporate governance or who demonstrate challenging behaviour?

Most associations allow any member to stand for leadership & board positions which can result in: leaders with single agenda strategies, disruptive behaviour or being out of their depth and lacking confidence. The most effective way in which associations should tackle this is by being proactive and developing members before they take on leadership & board roles.

Join us for this Masterclass:

Developing your Members to become Board members & Association Leaders

Tuesday 15 March between 09:00 - 12:00 GMT. (10:00 - 13:00 CET), ONLINE

Early Booker rate of GBP195 valid until this Friday 18 February 2022

The Masterclass explains and examines a successful and innovative leadership development programme which addresses the issues and improves governance within your association.

You will learn:

• What a good leadership development programme for members looks like
• How to create cohorts of members who are more prepared for leadership vacancies as they arise
• How a leadership development programme can create a more diverse Board and create opportunities for under-represented groups within the membership

Best regards

Damian
