Webinar: The Inner Self, by Hugh Mackay
Date: 05 Oct 2020
Institute of Community Directors Australia (ICDA) members are invited to a special FREE webinar with Australia's leading social researcher, Hugh Mackay AO, who will discuss his latest (and newly-released) book, The Inner Self.
The Inner Self is a book about the ways we hide from the truth about ourselves and the psychological freedom we enjoy when we finally face that most searching question of all: 'Who am I, really?'
Join ICDA, Hugh Mackay, Our Community's Denis Moriarty, and the Chair of the Community Directors Council, Susan Pascoe AM, who will discuss how understanding your inner self will help you radically improve your contribution to community boards and governance.
NOTE: This webinar is available only to members of ICDA.
This Webinar will take place live on:
Monday, October 5, 2020 from 1pm to 2pm AEDT
Price:
FREE for ICDA members!

What's a Webinar?
A Webinar is a seminar that's conducted over the internet.
Viewers watch a remote presentation on their own screens at a set broadcast time and can participate by typing and submitting questions they would like answered by the presenter.
Our Webinars are recorded and a copy is sent out to every registrant by default. So if you aren't able to watch the Webinar live at the scheduled time, you don't need to do anything - we'll send you a copy you can watch at your own pace on your own screen.
Why Webinars work
You'll learn at a time that suits you
If you can't join us at the scheduled time, we will automatically send you a recording you can watch at your own pace.
You can ask your burning questions
Our Webinars include a 45-minute presentation followed by a 15 minute interactive Q&A session where you'll call the shots. You do so by typing your questions during the Webinar.
You don't need an IT degree
There's no complicated software involved. You just need a reliable internet connection to participate. We'll email you instructions at each step too. Simple!
