This session will equip you with the knowledge you need to either proof check, or improve upon, your constitution to ensure that it minimises unnecessary risk, reflects current governance practices and protects your organisation from unforeseen events. In particular, this session will focus on:

  • The increasing importance of constitutions in implementing modern governance practices;
  • How your constitution can help you manage risk effectively;
  • The connection between your constitution and stakeholder centricity; and
  • The burgeoning role of ancillary documents, such as by-laws, policies etc.
