Governance

Governance  training, Mentoring, Assessments and Audits   

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.

"Thanks so much for your excellent training session yesterday with the ACCAN Board. Their first meeting together today went very well and I am sure it assisted greatly by your training on governance the day before. The time spent and your skillful facilitation ensured the Board had the conversations they needed to have in a comfortable and supported manner."

" Attended my first board meeting since the workshop and it made a huge difference to me in confidence and influencing the board to take on some more rigor and processes. It won’t all happen overnight but incrementally I know I can make a difference."
Robert Crowe
MBA MAICD
"Natalie is a wealth of information on business governance and legislation and gave me support, advice and direction throughout my diploma studies. Natalie’s bubbly personality and ability to interact and engage me in all subject materials made my classroom days enjoyable. Natalie’s professionalism and knowledge is to be admired and is what makes her such an amazing trainer and assessor. Nothing was ever too much trouble her for! Thank you for helping me achieve such high results in my diploma."
