Getting the right behaviours and dynamics on the board and between board members is an essential ingredient for successful organisations. The Chair’s role in managing these dynamics is key as they have prime responsibility for ensuring the board has a productive culture. This session will provide useful insight and advice on how to set the tone for the board, create expectations of appropriate trustee behaviours, build positive relationships, and manage difficult dynamics.
We will cover:
- Creating a productive board culture so that all trustees are able to give their best for the benefit of the organisation
- Setting and managing expectations of trustee behaviours
- Laying the foundations for better teamworking
- Useful tools and approaches when behaviours do not meet expectations
