Acheiving more through partnerships

Over the last month I have had the privilege of working with the management and staff at Exhibition Park to co-host an event called Mastering the Board Game with international governance consultant Bill Charney. www.bcharney.com

When they approached me to ask if I would donate my time to take on the task of creating a web page and email campaign, along with setting up online registration and tracking systems, I jumped at the chance. I believe so strongly in the potential for boards to do more and better when they understand their role more clearly, and this workshop was a great opportunity for learning and understanding these important concepts.

In all, we had 77 people attend from 26 different organizations. Bill delivered an excellent presentation and I believe we all went home with more clarity around our roles on boards.

Thank you to Exhibition Park for inviting me to take part and to all the volunteer baord members and executives who took a full day to join us.
