Governance & Leadership for Boards and Executives

Boards and senior managers work through the decisions they actually face: who approves what, how management reports upward, and how conflicts of interest are declared and handled.

Participants review their own constitution or bylaws against good practice, map the split of authority between shareholders, board and management, and draft a delegation-of-authority schedule they can table at their next meeting.

Sessions follow South Sudanese company and NGO law, so the documents produced are ones a registrar or a donor due-diligence team will recognise.

Indicative outline

• Roles of shareholders, boards and management
• Governance manuals, constitutions and bylaws
• Strategic oversight and performance management
• Conflict of interest, ethics and accountability
• Board and executive working relationships

The sequence and weighting are adjusted after the needs assessment. Where a group already has strong practice in one area, that time moves to where it is needed.

• Board members and trustees
• Executive directors and senior managers
• Organisations formalising governance

Group size is normally 15–25 participants for open sessions. In-house cohorts are sized to your team.

This course runs on request. Open sessions are scheduled once a cohort is formed, and in-house delivery is scheduled around your team’s calendar.

Fees depend on duration, group size, location and whether materials are developed from scratch or adapted. Send us the scope and we will quote it.
