Overview

SCVO is focussing on board recruitment and diversity during Trustees' Week 2021. This webinar will explore the benefits of having a diverse board, and the practical ways you can ensure your board has a variety of attitudes, skills and experience to avoid group think and ensure good governance.

Overall aim

Having a diverse and inclusive board is crucial to the success and sustainability of your organisation. Join Penny Wilson from Getting on Board, Malcom John from Action for Trustee Racial Diversity, and Manish Joshi, SCVO trustee, to learn about their experiences and the practical ways trustees can diversify their boards.

Description

Join Penny Wilson, from Getting on Board, Malcolm John from Action for Trustee Racial Diversity, and Manish Joshi, SCVO trustee, to hear about the practical ways trustees can diversify their boards and make change from the inside out.

SCVO will also launch a special offer for Trustees Week 2021 where organisations in Scotland can advertise their board vacancy for free on Goodmoves during November and December. Your trustee vacancy will be seen by over 80,000 people who are actively looking to get involved in the sector.
