An upcoming webinar series presented by the Chamber of Commerce Serving Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows is aimed at helping not-for-profit organizations with a board of directors.
The board governance training webinar will be hosted by Deb McClelland, interim director of member relations at the BC Chamber of Commerce, who was formerly the executive director of the Kamloops Chamber of Commerce for 19 years.
McClelland will give participants an overview of the best practices in board governance over the course of the three 90-minute webinars.
As the chamber of commerce explains, “best practice in governance means that a board ensures their optimal performance through the implementation of effective systems.”

Lastly, the webinar will teach people how to find the best people to serve on the board and how to conduct the senior staff person’s annual performance review.
