SUMMARY:Innovation & the Boardroom: What Every Non-Exec Must Know (and Do)

She is known for her plain-spoken style\, practical strategies\, and a bias for action that helps teams move complex\, high-value work forward — faster. \nAbove all\, Sarah is recognised for her generous\, real-world sharing of robust\, proven approaches that boards and leadership teams can put into practice immediately. \n\n\n  \n\n\nTo Attend:  \nTo attend\, you will need to select the relevant ticket option and complete the event registration form. \n(Members remember to login first before registering to the session!) \nDial-in details will be distributed the day before the event.
