Start to feel the governance beat with...

Two interactive pre-conference workshops presented by seasoned governance experts

  • An Introduction to the Policy Governance®️ System:  The Dynamic Fundamentals
  • Changing the World Through Impact - Organizational Strategic Directions and Impact:  From the Board's Big Ideas to Real Results on the Ground

Let the governance vibes keep flowing through you with dynamic keynotes, plenty of networking opportunities, and really groovy sessions like...

Workshop 1A - Building Effective, Impactful, and Owner/Careholder Informed Ends (Critical Outcomes)

(Steve Schroeder)

 

One of the Boards biggest responsibilities and most important jobs and contributions is to define the direction of the organization in terms of purpose, key outcomes expected, people to be served and expectation for value and responsible investment of resources. Part of this role is for the Board to listen and engage with its broader community/ownership/careholdership to understand their varied perspectives on what impact the organization should have. This can be challenging in turbulent times when some of the ownership may be divisive and disruptive. This session will address processes the Board can use to achieve this critical governance work including suggested approaches for keeping Ends (critical outcomes) fresh and relevant in changing times.

 

Workshop 1B - Building Robust Governance Relationships for the Long Term - Innovation, Ownership (Careholdership)/Broader Community and Other Stakeholder Engagement Methods (including innovative use of technology)

(Brad Saron, Kim Hyshka)

 

7 Unusual, Engaging Participatory Techniques…for Stakeholder & Caregiver Engagement

 

Ask yourself these questions:

  • Do you need to engage with stakeholders and caregivers?
  • Are you still eager to have an interactive, dynamic discussion that leads to productive solutions and decisions?
  • Do you value strong relationships and building community participation capacity?

If you answered yes to any of these questions, then join us for a Human Lab, where you can fill your toolbox with FIVE new, innovative, and effective stakeholders engagement techniques that will help you host better, powerful conversations, achieve objectives and create momentum and alignment between you and your stakeholders, trustees, and caregivers.

 

NO TRADITIONAL SLIDES, NO LECTURE & PRESENTATION just 75 minutes of fun, interactive and experiential learning!

 

Learning Outcomes - Participants of this session can expect to walk understanding:

  • Experience diverse techniques in order to see which one is the best fit for a specific engagement process
  • Practice a variety of techniques that work both online and in-person including Soapbox, story-telling, human spectrogram, solution room, and Socratic Circle©
  • Evaluate the complexity or the simplicity of application of the techniques to avoid unpleasant surprises at the time of a real consultation
  • Spend 75 minutes in good company while having fun!
