Governance Professionals Executive Coaching and Mentoring (Code: C1216)

The research project  The Unseen Strategic Leader  found that over three-quarters of Governance Professionals had never accessed or had very limited access to 1-2-1 support. Yet, it was the private support that most Governance Professionals believed would have the greatest impact on their ability to deliver effective governance to the sector. With this mind, ETF has developed a tailored and targeted Executive Coaching Programme for Governance Professionals with  Kay White.
