What to expect:

• This practical 12-month small group (6-10 people) program brings together like-minded women, trans, non-binary and gender diverse people to support each other in their journey to build governance wisdom
• The one hour and 45-minute Zoom sessions are held once a month
• Sessions run from February until December
• We’ll look at a series of topics chosen by the group
• One-on-one coffee catch-ups each month 

Plus, an invitation to the alumni dinner! 

“Helga is totally invested to this program, her encouragement guides you through the maze of self-identified issues that are debated and nutted through by the group. 

“Most rewarding is that you realise you're not the only board member having these issues, they are surprisingly common and this program was invaluable to gain the knowledge to be able to contribute to a board competently and with confidence. Thank you Helga and my program members across the 2021 program. I highly recommend this program.”
