“The IoD workshop on Chairing Boards and Committees is an extremely useful guide to the practical, organisational and functional roles of a Chair in leading a variety of Boards, and deals effectively with the challenges posed to a Chair when dealing with several types of stakeholder and participant. Highly recommended.”

“The workshop Chairing Boards and Committees provided by Marie Collins CDir was extensive in content and advice for a short learning program. The group interaction was very informative also. I would highly recommend for anyone who is a Board/Committee Chairperson or Board member or considering moving in this direction. It is also a great learning experience for those who have completed the IoD Chartered Director Programme.”
