Chapel Hill, NC (8/12/15) – Diane D. Miller, President and CEO of Wilcox Miller & Nelson, the Sacramento office of Career Partners International, a leading global provider of outplacement, career transition, executive coaching and other talent management services, will speak at the National Association of Corporate Directors’ (NACD) Director Professionalism Course. Miller will speak on “Tying It All Together: 8 Habits of Highly Effective Boards,” during the NACD course next week in Laguna Beach, CA.
NACD Director Professionalism Courses cover all of the fundamental skills that directors need to be successful board members. The course, which takes place over two days, is highly interactive and led by accomplished directors and corporate governance experts located throughout the United States. The agenda for the August 17 – 18 course includes a mixture of panel discussions, case studies, keynote presentations and networking opportunities for attendees.
“Board governance is under increasing scrutiny; whether in the for-profit or non-profit world,” commented Miller. “Directors who make a practice of constant governance education rank at the top in terms of creating a board culture that maximizes opportunities and appropriately deals with risk.”
Miller has held a variety of leadership roles professionally and in her free-time, including Director of the NACD’s Northern California Chapter, Director of the California Chamber of Commerce, and Director at University of the Pacific. She is a NACD Board Leadership Fellow and a NACD Master Class Instructor.
The August NACD Director Professionalism Course will be held at the Montage Resort in Laguna Beach, CA, on August 17-18, 2015. Miller’s presentation will take place from 1:15pm – 2:15pm PDT on August 18th.
