WEBINAR DETAILS
The board secretary’s
role goes far beyond being the “note taker” at board meetings. The job often
entails being the chief organizer, ensuring compliance requirements are met,
understanding governance issues, planning meetings, developing reports, and
preserving corporate records. Many of the duties involve ensuring the board is
meeting its responsibilities.
This session will provide
the information and tools needed to be a successful board secretary. It will
review essential tasks and provide best practices to enhance administration of
corporate governance, including establishing an agenda, delivering the board
package, scribing contemporaneous meeting notes, and documenting the details in
the official minutes. It will also review best practices for documenting
“healthy debate” and discussion that may occur during a board meeting and
provide guidance and tips for becoming more effective and efficient. Tools will
be provided to enhance organization.
WHO SHOULD ATTEND?
This informative session
is designed for board secretaries, corporate secretaries, senior management,
and directors.
