Anderson Center

Governance Forum

The Governance Forum is designed for members of boards of directors (and boards of trustees or boards of advisors), as a vehicle for improving the performance and effectiveness of individual directors and boards as a whole. This three-day Forum is a comprehensive program that assists individuals in assessing their key knowledge, skills and abilities, and forming a plan for their own development, and the development of their board.

Program Objectives

Assessing directors’ knowledge, skills, and abilities, identifying strengths and weaknesses, and preparing development plans.
Introducing governance principles and tools for post-forum application in participants’ own boards of directors, trustees, and/or advisors.
Practicing governance through real-world case studies, vignettes, director interviews, and other experiential learning processes.
Providing resources for post-forum learning and application.
Networking with Governance Forum and other Center alumni for ongoing learning and development opportunities.

The fee for the Governance Forum is $2,200. The fee covers tuition, case materials, meals and lodging. Nonprofit organizations receive a 20% discount.
