Speaker: Carters Professional Corporation/Terry Carter, B.A., LL.B, TEP
Successfully managing a not-for-profit organization involves having a good understanding of the duties, responsibilities and liabilities that directors and officers of a not-for-profit or charitable corporation face. This session will help you to identify and understand what those duties and responsibilities are so that you will be equipped to better comply with applicable obligations and reduce unnecessary exposure to liability. This session will equip you with insights and practical tips in the following areas:
1. Who is a director and officer of an NFP and charity?
2. What are their unique roles?
3. What are the Common Law Duties and Liabilities that apply?
4. What are the Statutory Duties and Liabilities that apply?
5. What are the Due Diligence Steps to Manage Risks to Directors and Officers?
