Not for profit board and committee governance
Governance training, mentoring, assessments and audits Â
Using personal knowledge and real-world examples, Natalie helps boards, CEOs, management teams, and committees, understand how to practically apply good governance.
As a founding trainer of the Institute of Community Directors, and Our Community, Natalie regularly delivers certified (up to Diploma level) and customised training programs.
Natalie makes (what can be) a boring subject, fun, relevant, and interesting, while transferring knowledge, and increasing individual capacity, to understand and apply: legislation, frameworks, systems, and processes, in their own non-profit and corporate business environments.
