Governance Bites: Keeping it Legal

Facilitator: Garth Nowland-Foreman, from LEAD Centre for Not for Profit Governance and Leadership

Cost: Free event

While staying on the right side of the law is not the end of your work as a non-profit board member, it is a good place to start.

In this session we will briefly look at how laws (written and unwritten) impact on your organisation.

We will also remind ourselves what being incorporated means, why it is important, and how to avoid losing its crucial protections.

Finally, we will uncover why Conflicts of Interest are not a problem, but how we deal with them can be if we don’t follow three simple rules.

Sessions will run from 5.30pm to 7.00pm. However, doors open and pizza bites are available from 5.00pm!

RSVP: Registrations essential, via email: outreach@volcan.org.nz
