SHE LEADS BOARDS YWCA Adelaide is committed to providing opportunities that work towards increasing the number of women on boards. In the 2016 / 2017 year, YWCA Adelaide delivered four Board Training sessions for women to increase their opportunities for board success. Delivered by governance expert Nicole Swaine, the training aims to increase the governance skills and confidence of women considering applying for board roles. Topics covered include governance models, roles and responsibilities, financial obligations, policy development and strategic planning. As we move forward with our SHE Leads suite of programs and services, YWCA Adelaide is currently reviewing its SHE Leads Board and Board Masterclass training programs and aim to deliver new and exciting board training programs in 2018.
