Does your board have the confidence to lead your artistic vision?
In the creative sector, governance is about more than compliance, it’s about building a leadership team that can support ambitious goals while managing the risks of public-funded or donor-led work. We help theatre companies, museums, and galleries turn their boards into strategic assets.
We provide interactive sessions and expert guidance for trustees and senior leadership teams to ensure a healthy, effective organisational culture.
Our core services:
- Trustee Roles & Responsibilities: Tailored training on legal duties under the Charities Act and Companies Act, clarifying personal and collective liabilities.
- Managing Conflicts of Interest: Implementing robust policies for complex creative environments, such as boards featuring practicing artists or donors.
- Strategic Planning & Risk: Facilitating sessions to define long-term visions and develop risk registers that reflect the volatility of the cultural sector.
- Governance Health Checks: Reviewing your Articles or Constitutions against the Charity Governance Code to ensure they are fit for purpose.
- Succession & Recruitment: Advice on attracting a diverse range of trustees that reflect your community and possess the necessary specialist skills.
- EDI Governance: Specific guidance on embedding Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion at the board level to ensure diverse decision-making.
We provide hands-on support, helping you build a board that is not only compliant but also an empowered partner in your organisation’s creative success.
