Governance Professionals Executive Mentoring (Code: C1216)

From research it’s been discovered that most Governance Professions believe private one-to-one support will have the greatest impact on their confidence, clarity and ability to deliver effective governance to the sector.

The role is both high profile, critical and, at the same time, can feel isolated.

With this in mind, since 2021, ETF has developed a tailored and targeted private Executive Coaching Programme for Governance Professionals with Career Coach, Kay White.
