Governance in practice: what I wish I'd known


Governance is one of the most consistently challenging areas for association professionals at every career stage. New practitioners are often thrown into board support roles without adequate preparation. Experienced managers find themselves navigating board dynamics, conflict, and constitutional complexity with limited peer support. And CEOs regularly manage the tension between board oversight and operational autonomy. This open Q&A session puts members directly in front of an experienced CEO who has seen it all, and is willing to talk about it honestly.

What members can expect
This session is designed to surface the realities; the challenges, grey areas, and lessons that come with experience.

  • No slides or presentation, just direct access to hard-earned governance experience
  • You can submit questions in advance that will be covered in the session.
  • A safe space to explore real issues, from the fundamentals to the more complex or sensitive challenges. 
  • All questions welcome, no topic is too basic or too sensitive
