Corporate Governance for Boards: Duties & Best Practice

An intensive session for directors, company secretaries and senior executives on governance duties under Tanzanian law - and how boards that take them seriously outperform boards that do not.

We work through directors’ duties under the Companies Act, board and committee structures that actually function, conflicts of interest and related-party transactions, and the personal liability exposures every director should understand. Practical templates and checklists are provided to all participants.
