In this cutting-edge conversation, Trent shares his journey from a customer-centric retail background to becoming an expert in the Cooperative and Not-for-Profit (NFP) model.

What You Will Learn:

-The Power of Servant Leadership: How a focus on service became Trent's "common denominator" across publicly listed and member-owned organizations.

-"Goldilocks Governance": Learn the perfect balance for risk management that is "just right" for your NFP's strategic ambition—not too simple, not too complex.

-The NFP M&A Reality: Why boards are actively discussing mergers and acquisitions and the need for a formal "Plan B" to ensure mission sustainability (citing AICD trends!).

-Board Craft & Renewal: Practical advice on how small-to-midsize NFPs can attract emerging directors and transition from historical purpose to a mindset of renewal and regeneration.

If you are a Board Director, CEO, or work in the NFP, Cooperative, or Mutual sector, this is essential listening to future-proof your organisation!
