Still feeling so fortunate to have been selected and sponsored by CS for this summer’s Board Director Training provided by Foundation for Shared Impact (FSI)! 🙏 In four sessions led by engaging instructors (both HKU professors), including fascinating case studies and insights from other participants (some who currently sit on boards), I gained valuable knowledge about: ⭐ how boards function in for- and not-for- profit organisations, what makes them great and what issues they can face ⭐ the various roles and responsibilities, and what it takes to be an effective, accountable board member ⭐ the legal, compliance, risk management, control and audit landscape within board governance ⭐ the specific challenges faced by not-for-profit boards Am thankful for this fascinating and fun learning opportunity which enriched my experience - and approach - as a member of CS HK's charity committee, and gave me the extra confidence to take on additional leadership responsibilities and make a stronger impact within the Bank and in the wider community. 💜 #socialimpact #sharedimpact #sustainability #philanthropy #outreach #leadershipskills #professionalgrowth #csr #nonprofit #boardofdirectors #boardmember #corporategovernance #traininganddevelopment #careeradvancement #serveothers #followyourpassion #findyourwhy #leadwithpurpose

A great way to end the week with Rhea Maughan (Assoc CIPD) and managers discussing the importance of Cultural Intelligence and taking a deep-dive into Charities Aid Foundation (CAF) values. Managers have committed to championing the CAF values when recruiting, and when conducting 1:1s, PDP meetings and team meetings. Now for a long weekend. And chocolate. Lots of chocolate. 🍫 🐣 #culturalintelligence #leadership #management #organisationalvalues

In the dynamic landscapes of non-profits, destination marketing organizations and recreation businesses, challenges like funding fluctuations, volunteer management, safety protocols, and natural disasters can pose significant risks to operations. Effective crisis management isn't just reactive; it's about proactive preparation. Imagine having a tailored strategy in place that anticipates potential crises and outlines clear steps to mitigate their impact. Prepare today to protect tomorrow—effective crisis management is the cornerstone of organizational resilience. #CrisisManagement #NonProfits #RecreationBusiness #RiskMitigation #ConsultingExcellence #BusinessResilience #Leadership #Strategy
