Professional governance, online

There are many benefits to utilising virtual governance:

  • increased security and compliance
  • more efficient and effective use of volunteers’ time;
  • clearer audit trails and reduced risk of “human error”;
  • reduced carbon footprint and environmental impact (which helps everyone);
  • attracting new volunteers and retaining existing ones, wherever they are in the world; and,
  • broadening the reach of the service to support more clients seeking a governance professional.

As part of our virtual service delivery procedure, we confirm with all meeting participants that they have access to the required technology, to allow them to hear and speak throughout the meeting, and “to see and be seen“.  We are committed to ensuring that all meeting participants are able to put across their point of view, however they choose to join.

We are proud to have pioneered virtual governance practices, and are keen to encourage more governing boards to work smarter and greener; so, if a client specifically requests for a meeting to be attended by Your Clerk ‘in-person’, additional charges will apply.  Please refer to our terms and conditions for details.
