Overview

This course is an excellent and efficient way to learn about this powerful model of governance. Policy Governance is a logical and clear way for boards to govern, and this course is accompanied by a full set of sample policies that you can adapt for your board. The Policy Governance model creates a safe, empowering yet highly accountable relationship between the Board and the CEO.

Learn the 10 principles of Policy Governance that form this groundbreaking governance model that was created by Dr. John Carver and is used worldwide today.

This course is designed:

  • For directors joining a board already using the model, as “new director orientation” or as a refresher for the whole board,
  • For boards considering whether to adopt this model of governance, or
  • To test whether your board is using the model to its full capabilities.

Learn the practical benefits as well as the realistic investments to achieve success using Policy Governance.

Catherine Raso, the instructor for this course, was personally trained by Dr. John Carver almost 30 years ago and is one of the most experienced Policy Governance Consultants in the world.
