This intermediate course focuses on the key role of the leader in sports governance in delivering and supporting effective governance. It will benefit those who have begun to establish their governance role or function and are seeking to further their impact. Leading Sports Governance is a progression from the Essential Sports Governance course. It addresses core activities and key governance milestones and looks at what it takes to run an effective board.

Through a combination of teaching and interactive practical exercises, this course develops governance leaders' understanding of key governance processes, effective meetings and decision making, and appreciation of board culture and dynamics. You will develop:

• mature governance literacy, aimed at developing a post-compliance culture of good governance

• an understanding of the ‘softer’ dynamics of relationships on boards and committees
• an understanding of stakeholder relationships
• keys to effective decision making
