Overview of the session
There are some things that new Trustees just need to know. And over time, even Trustees who have served for a while can do with a refresher to remind them what they’ve perhaps forgotten.
So our short, two hour “Induction and Refresher” training sessions are excellent for both brand new trustees joining a board for the first time, and for trustees who perhaps need that refresh.
The Charity Commission outlines the roles and responsibilities of all Trustees in “The Essential Trustee”. Every trustee should read this – perhaps even before they join a board. And guides such as “The Good Trustee” Guide are the ‘encyclopaedia’ that you need to refer to. But we hope our face-to-face group approach to bringing you up to speed is the easiest way to go.
You’ll cover all the basics. What you must do, what you should do, what you shouldn’t do. What your responsibilities and obligations are. How you should behave. How you should get support. How you can develop. How you can work as part of your team. What regulations should you refer to. How can you grow into your role. What are good practices. And much more.
More about the session
Over the course of two hours we’ll help you to understand the role of a trustee or committee member a bit better, so you know what you should and shouldn’t do, how you need to behave and what you need to do to be effective.
This short, introductory course is a great start for anyone joining a board for the first time (or needing a refresher). If you’ve been in the role for a while, then hopefully you already know what you’re supposed to be doing!
During the two hour training course we will help Trustees learn:
what they must do
what they should do
what they could do
how to behave
how to be useful to the organisation
how to learn and develop themselves and gain from trusteeship
how to get support
how to work as an individual trustee but also as part of the team
and more…
We’ll take a look at:
Trusteeship – both an opportunity and a responsibility
The legal trustee
The principled trustee
The purposeful trustee
The well behaved trustee
The skilled trustee
The effective trustee
The supported trustee
