Association of Chairs: Board Essentials – Recruiting and Retaining Trustees

Many charities continue to face challenges in recruiting and retaining trustees - particularly people who bring diverse perspectives, relevant skills and experience, and who are able to fully engage in the role. Recruitment and succession planning are not solely the responsibility of the chair; they are a collective responsibility of the whole Board.

This session will explore the role trustees can play in building a strong, inclusive and effective Board, from identifying gaps and reaching new networks through to welcoming, supporting and retaining trustees once appointed.
