The award, one of only seven handed out annually, recognizes the سԹ’s (سԹ) excellence in Board and Director Effectiveness.

“سԹ has intentionally focused on becoming a best-in-class association since 2017. Our governance effectiveness has been a multi-year journey, and we review our association against best practices annually,” said سԹ President Mary Van Buren.

Of note is the robust governance manual and a fulsome orientation for the Board, National Advisory Councils (NAC), and Board Committee volunteers developed by سԹ’s staff and Governance and Nominating Committee over the past two years.

“Our internal evaluations have shown strong support for our governance and engagement model, and this external recognition by the Governance Professionals of Canada, its sponsors, and this year’s panel of judges reinforces the decisions we have taken and the tools and policies we have developed and implemented to support our current governance model,” stated Charles Caza.

سԹ is very proud of this achievement. We sincerely thank the original working group, chaired by Joe Wrobel (سԹ past-Chair, 2020-21), the Governance and Nominating Committee, and the سԹ Board of Directors for their efforts to continuously improve the association.
