Effective governance depends on informed, connected, and engaged board members. To support public sector organizations across British Columbia, the Crown Agencies and Board Resourcing Office (CABRO) developed a series of conferences focused on strengthening board governance and advancing excellence in public service. These events brought together public sector board members, board chairs, governance professionals, and government representatives to share experiences, exchange knowledge, and explore emerging issues affecting public sector governance.
Conferences were held in 2019, 2022, and 2024. Grounded in the principle of governing in the public interest, the conferences provided participants with practical learning opportunities, access to leading governance practices, and a forum for meaningful discussion on the responsibilities and challenges of public sector boards. The conferences complemented CABRO’s broader governance support and capacity-building initiatives, including its training programs, governance resources, and best-practice guidance for board members.
We invite you to review the agendas from past conferences for a better sense of the information shared.
