Getting to Grips with Non-for-Profit Governance is the first printed NZ-specific book on governance on sale to the public for years.The book has been published against the backdrop of the new Incorporated Societies Act 2022. Getting to Grips with Not-for-Profit Governance provides the basics you need to know as a new director.Getting to Grips with Not-for-Profit Governance is particularly useful for people who are newly elected or appointed to a board or committee. It is also aimed at existing directors, both as a refresher and for when discussing the new incorporated societies requirements.A slim, no-nonsense book.
