Speciality Areas

 

Pamela Murray-Jones has taught directors in Australia, Malaysia, Thailand, and as far afield as Sri Lanka where she delivered a course on risk management, sponsored by CIMA UK, to seventy CEOs of leading companies following the tsunami.

Pamela is a Graduate of the Australian Institute of Company Directors; holds a Certificate in Company Direction from the Institute of Directors, New Zealand, and is a practising independent director.  Pamela is also an Independent Director on the Fundraising Institute of Australia.

I believe it is essential learning for anyone who opens/forms a Pty Ltd Company

The whole course was beneficial - I really enjoyed Pamela's stories re cases where Directors were competent etc.

Corporate Governance and Directors Duties Workshop

Wednesday 10 March 9.30am - 12.30pm

How much do you know about Corporate Governance?  TAKE THE QUIZ

 

Are you a director of your own business or are you considering registering your business as a company? Are you on the management or investment committee of your organisation or are you an honorary Director on the board of a not-for-profit organisation? If so you need to be aware of the extent of the responsibilities and duties you are taking on and what is expected of you.

The financial crisis has highlighted the importance of good governance in financial stability and sustainability. In 2010, we can expect that it will become an even more important aspect of a company’s management that regulators, banks, investors and purchasers will look at when making an assessment of an organisation’s future.

Using a dynamic blend of case studies and discussion that will help you experience what it’s like in the ‘hot seat”.

This course will cover the key areas of:

  • The principles of corporate governance
  • Duties and responsibilities of directors
  • Ramifications for breaching duties and director defences
  • Applying corporate governance to small business
  • The role and advantages of independent directors and a well run board in managing risk and growing the business


Who should attend?

  • Directors of small and medium sized businesses
  • Members of committees of larger organisations who have significant decision-making responsibilities
  • Those who hold honorary director roles on not-for-profit boards

 

Pamela Murray-Jones has been a senior corporate executive and corporate governance professional for 7 years. As General Manager for Director and Board Development at the Australian Institute of Company Directors (2002 – 2008) she was responsible for developing and annually updating the Company Directors Course, the definitive program for professional directors in Australia and the Asia Pacific region.
