This course explores how governors can build a dynamic and effective accountability relationship with their board of directors and how they can effectively hold their non-executive directors to account for board performance.

Who is this workshop for?

• All types of governors

Governors will gain:

• an understanding of the context for councils of governors to carry out their statutory duty of holding the non-executive directors to account for the performance of the board
• the opportunity to explore what accountability and holding to account means in practice
• an appreciation of the need for good ground rules in promoting good relationships
• knowledge of a risk based approach to assessing information needs and the ability to use this approach to assess whether governors have enough information
• the confidence to make appropriate challenges through participating in practical exercises
• the opportunity to meet and network with their fellow governors.
