Stepping up to Chair - what's really involved in becoming a Board Chair?

In this podcast we hear from Sue Douthwaite, Chair of Nexa Finance and NHS Business Service Authority, and Sarah Heenan, Chair of Regents Opera - two members who stepped into Chair roles in 2022 about their experience of making the transition, and the challenges and rewards they are finding. They also share their journey to securing the positions, and what they learnt along the way.
