ACCT GOVERNANCE LEADERSHIP INSTITUTE

A Two-Day Leadership Institute for Trustees and CEOs Focusing on the Crucial Leadership Role of the Board of Trustees

 

April 26-28, 2009
Beau Rivage Hotel Resort and Casino
Biloxi, Mississippi


 
Thank you to all the trustees, their presidents and the ACCT consultants and staff who made the 2009 Biloxi institute a great success!

 

ACCT's Governance Leadership Institute is a unique opportunity for the president and a team of trustees to carve out quality time to work together on important and timely issues.

The 2009 Institute in Biloxi focused on proven practices that strengthen the board/CEO relationship, help trustees accept responsibility for holding one another accountable, and provide tools and techniques to the officers of the board.


About the Governance Leadership Institute for Trustees and CEOs

ACCT's Governance Leadership Institute is a must-attend educational meeting for current chairs, vice chairs and trustees in line to become chairs of the board. A team of trustees (three or more) and the president is most effective.
