Learn how to run a lower stress process to produce an engaging annual operating plan.
An annual operating plan is a prized document. It's the blueprint for building your organisation in any given year. You wouldn’t build a house without architectural drawings. Unfortunately, many small to medium businesses or non-profit CEO’s run their organisation's with only a sketch of what they are building.

This webinar is aimed at CEOs of commercial and not for profit organisations with revenues between $1M and $40M and a functioning management/leadership team (i.e., 3+ managers) who don’t have a strong track record of strategic and operational planning.

Join us for our enlightening webinar, 'How to think differently about whole of business governance’, where Dr Dean Blomson and our expert panel will be guiding us through an exploration of business governance design.

This webinar is designed to explore governance beyond the confines of the boardroom, into and across the business entity (whether for-profit or not-for-profit; whether listed or public). If boards are to be effective in their governance, then the systems, processes, and structures of the business itself need to be properly designed and reliably managed. Board systems don’t or shouldn’t exist in a parallel universe from the organisation itself (although often it seems like they do).

Dean, supported by the panel, will delve into why it is crucial for any organisation to develop a business-wide governance model that doesn’t necessarily start with the board and its requirements but ultimately supports these effectively and efficiently. Dean will touch on his research into enterprise governance design, plus his prior BoardPro presentation from 5 September (“Bespoke governance”: How to determine if your governance is fit-for-purpose).

Learn the fine art of CEO reporting to the board in four simple steps in 45 minutes from industry and governance experts.
Once targets have been clearly defined, the CEO should be able to produce a report that clearly and easily gives the board the information they need. As a rule, the first two pages should be enough for board members to gather a broad understanding of the position of the business, without having to read any further.

The art of collaborative leadership can enhance relationships and transform boardroom decision-making. This webinar will dive into the key components of collaboration and offer practical tips for implementation.

Leadership styles profoundly impact the effectiveness of boards and leadership teams. While autocratic leadership may deliver quick results, it’s the more challenging art of collaborative leadership that fosters lasting success. Contrary to popular belief, collaborative leadership is not as congenial as you may think. In fact, it involves healthy doses of conflict, feedback and accountability.

This webinar will unpack the core components of collaborative leadership and provide pragmatic strategies for boards and leadership teams to make smarter decisions, increase engagement, encourage innovation, and manage power dynamics effectively.
