Skills development programmes


These programmes are designed to provide non-executive directors with the tools they need to perform their governance duties. These “softer” skills are essential for all senior and non-executive managers as the expectation of non-executive directors has grown. The courses will help non-executive directors to ensure that they perform their duties to the best of their ability and truly hold other senior managers and directors to account.
