Know what every board member has to do
“In my new role as a Chief Executive of a national charity, Carol was immensely helpful in defining what was ‘management’ and what was ‘governance’. Also what good governance practice looked like.
Four years in, I have continued to work with Carol to understand what questions the board should be asking and to provide the right information to enable them to make informed decisions.
Carol’s depth of understanding of the not for profit sector and governance has been invaluable.”
Jane Bollard,
CEO Cystic Fibrosis New Zealand
“Carol has mentored Bird Rescue on a voluntary basis for around eight years now, and I have worked with her for the past five years in my capacity as a Trustee.
Carol is a brilliant governance advisor. Her skills, experience, independence and humour make her a valued and trusted member of our team and we’re looking forward to working with her to continue the process of upgrading our Board knowledge and systems.”
