Corporate Governance Network
CORPORATE GOVERNANCE NEWS: Issue 1 of 7
Hello, I’m Peter Towers, Managing Director of ESS BIZTOOLS.
Today I'd like to talk to you about a new concept that we’ve developed which we’re calling the Corporate Governance Network.
Over the last two years, through our consulting business – Towers Business Development Pty Ltd – we have conducted a series of workshops on behalf of the AusIndustry (a department of the Federal Government) on the Role & Responsibilities of Company Directors.
These workshops were conducted in a number of different locations in Queensland.
We also conducted workshops for committee members and officers of not-for-profits and charities at the same time.
From these workshops, we received very strong feedback from the participants who indicated they wanted to know.... what’s next? What follows this?
What we’ve decided to launch is a Corporate Governance Network which will comprise six webinar/workshops to be presented in roughly 90-minutes each time, commencing on Wednesday 9th May 2018 and running for the next twelve months.
The Corporate Governance Network is targeted at:
- company directors
- company officers
- committee members and officers of not-for-profits and charities
- accountants and business advisers
and anyone else who would like to improve their knowledge of matters relating to corporate governance without necessarily undertaking the Australian Institute of Company Directors’ Diploma Course. (Costs about $8,500).
The webinars will be recorded so they’ll be available for members to listen to at a later date, if that suits them better.
Subscribers will be invited to submit questions prior to each webinar/workshop so we have an indication of the types of issues that are confronting people who are running companies, not-for profits and charities.
The agenda will be sent to members of the network three days prior to the webinar/workshop presentation and the PowerPoint slides that we use will also be sent to participants prior to the webinar/workshop.
After the webinar/workshop, we will send you a copy of the notes of the main presentation and the additional material that any of the key note speakers have supplied to supplement their presentation.
