Date: Friday 25th and Saturday 26th JULY
Location: Brisbane Convention & Exhibition Centre
The conference theme for 2025 is: SUPERHEROES: Doing More with Less
Not-for-profit organisations, social enterprises and community businesses, play a crucial role in our society and economy, while simultaneously navigating sector-specific challenges and trends.
The cost-of-living crisis is affecting every segment of society—yet demands and expectations remain high—and continue to increase. Leaders of NFPs are striving to continue to provide their services and ensure their organisation's sustainability and positive impact. However, with funding constraints, changing legislative requirements, limited time and fewer resources, leaders are being challenged to achieve more, with less.
The Better Boards Conference assists boards, CEOs and executives of not-for-profit organisations to navigate this crisis. You'll hear timely insights, ideas, and practical tools, solutions and realistic strategies to develop and drive the success and sustainability of your organisation.
Join directors and CEOs of not-for-profit organisations to refine and strengthen your approach to governance and leadership and to continue your professional development in a focused environment.
This is your opportunity to connect, learn and grow.
