Mark Levin
This special one-day session, is led by one of the world’s foremost experts in leadership development for not-for-profit organisations.
Mark Levin, CAE, CSP has presented this leadership program to association leaders in the United States, Canada, Europe, Africa, South America, Australia and New Zealand.
His clients include the American Medical Association, the Australian Society of Association Executives, the Latin American Chamber Executives, and the Canadian Police Association. He has been a guest speaker at many UK association events, including the annual membership ‘Great Ideas Day’ in September.
He is not only a globally-respected speaker and author; he is completing his 30th year as the Executive Vice President of the Chain Link Fence Manufacturers Institute, an international trade organisation. His book, ‘The Gift of Leadership’ (one of four books he has authored on association and society leadership and membership) has been designated as required reading for select leadership courses at the American State Universities.
“A good day! It was useful to see both sides of the coin – the staff and the volunteer perspective. The day has re-affirmed my thinking of how important it is to get the right person in the volunteer role. I will now be looking at the leadership programme for elected volunteers.”
“A great day and well presented. It was really valuable to learn how to get the best out of the board.”
“All of the programme was valuable. It is important to take the time to consider these issues. Days like this are really necessary. I will now be doing further work on our Governance Handbook and board member orientation and training.”
“Covering how to manage difficult board behaviour at board meetings and how to recruit well was really valuable.”
“I needed to review our approach to board meetings and agendas and as a result of attending I will be changing my approach to both.”
