Non-Executive Directors course comes to North West for the first time

The Institute of Directors’ acclaimed Non-Executive Directors (NED) day and evening event is to visit the North-West for the first time.

Taking place on 29 January 2018 at The Principal Hotel, Manchester, the comprehensive programme is designed to equip potential Non-Executive Directors with practical strategies to build their network, raise their profile to secure an appointment and add value in the boardroom.

A previous attendee commented: “I’ve really enjoyed this evening. The panel was very knowledgeable, comprising a very broad range of experienced people across a diverse range of roles and companies.”

Claire Ebrey, Regional Director, IoD NW said: “Our events programme aims to help Directors gain invaluable practical advice on how to excel in their roles, regardless of the sector.

“The continued success of this London event has led to a demand for a similar event in the North-West. All attendees can expect a warm and friendly welcome from our Institute of Directors members and the chance to network with some key Directors from several sectors.”
