Workshops
Webinars and resources
We ran a series of online workshops with experts in the sector about the responsibilities of a governance role, implementing the Investment Principles, ideas for diversifying boards and tips on recruitment and succession planning.
All our workshops were aimed at members of boards and equivalent oversight groups as well as executive leaders who work with boards and attend governance meetings.
Find the recordings of the webinars, as well as slides from the event, and post event resources.

Are you part of a governance board or oversight group of an National Portfolio Organisation (NPO) working within an accountable body such as a local authority or university?
If so, join us and Lincoln Arts Centre on Thursday 9 May for a day of innovative approaches to good governance and develop dynamic peer networks with organisations across arts, libraries and museums.
Join our Chair Peer Network
Chair Peer Network
Following the Transforming Governance webinars, we launched the Chair Peer Network. The network is an opportunity to connect with other chairs of National Portfolio Organisations, learn from each other and exchange insights.
Registration for the network is now closed, but watch this space for future updates and network opportunities.
