In December, our three-day annual Board Governance BootCamp, sponsored by Manulife, will be held at Bingemans Conference Centre. This is an opportunity you don’t want to miss!
Our 2022 BootCamp will kickoff with a Presentation and fireside chat with Paul Smith, Founder, Future Directors Institute, Australia. Paul will also open the first day with a presentation, Anatomy of Future Directors – Inclusive Decision-Making Structure – Experiential Format and conclude the BootCamp with a presentation on The Atomic Board Room.
