Are you board ready? <\/em>How might a board position provide an opportunity to give back, grow and get ahead?\u00a0<\/em>Do you value diversity of thought and reflect on your contribution to good and effective governance?<\/em><\/p>\n

If the answer is\u00a0\u2018yes\u2019<\/strong>, then why not join Edinburgh Napier University\u2019s\u00a0short course:\u00a0Leadership in Board Governance (LiBG).<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n

The LiBG course provides a valuable opportunity for existing board members and senior staff to enhance their contribution to good and effective governance.\u00a0 The course includes four days of sessions between March and May. Provided by academic, practitioner and guest speakers including a board simulation, reflective practice and peer mentoring.<\/p>\n

Our next intake is March 2018\u00a0and\u00a0spaces are\u00a0now\u00a0limited. You can find out more and download an application form\u00a0here<\/a>. This is what our last cohort said about the course:<\/p>\n

Karen Gribben,\u00a0Senior Legal Counsel (Routes) at Rail Infrastructure Limited and Board Member at Wishaw and District Housing Association (WDHA)<\/strong>\u00a0\u201cI think the course has been outstanding. I think that if you think you know governance, you don\u2019t, and you need to come onto this course. It will really challenge your thinking. It\u2019s not just for charitable or trust organisations. Directors would really benefit to understand how they can work more in partnership with their board.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Alasdair Perry<\/strong>,\u00a0Deputy Assistant Chief Officer at Scottish Fire and Rescue Service\u00a0<\/strong>\u201cI\u2019ve found the course valuable and I would strongly recommend it to others. It\u2019s given me a broader perspective of working on a board, and a greater understanding of how to work with the board at my organisation.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Jacqueline\u00a0McCutcheon,\u00a0Corporate Services Manager at Patrick Housing Association\u00a0<\/strong>\u201cI\u2019d definitely recommend the course. It\u2019s beneficial in terms of understanding responsibilities of board members and trustees, as well as business within a wider context.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

The LiBG course is bought to you by the International Centre for Management and Governance Research (ICMGR).\u00a0 You can find out about a host of initiatives, events and research that we conduct in the area of leadership in board governance\u00a0here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
