I’ve only gotten this far because I’ve had people like you with me every step of the way.

If they win, they’re going to dismantle everything we’ve accomplished together over the past three and a half years, and turn back the clock to the same failed policies that got us into this mess in the first place. We cannot let that happen. There are only 32 days left in this campaign. If you’re planning to take the next step, now is the time. Please donat...

Masterclass for Directors leading to Certified Corporate Directorship Certification Course Dear Mr Sagar , Further to our tele communication regarding Masterclass for Directors programme. Directorship is no longer a SINECURE. Recent boardroom reforms introduced in most countries have put the onus of responsibility on Directors. Institute of Directors (IOD) believes that the problem of corporate misgovernance is due to the lack of effective training in Company Directorship. The proposed new Company Law Bill 2011, seeks to empower the Govt. to make it MANDATORY even for unlisted Public Companies to have atleast 33% Independent Directors on their boards India would need over 40,000 Independent Directors in near future. The IOD’s Masterclass for Directors, a 3 days condensed weekend Certification training programme, offers a whole vista of opportunities, especially for those who wish to join the poo...
