Calendar listings for webinars, conferences, workshops, and meetups — served at /events/[slug].
Events entries create calendar listings for upcoming and past webinars, conferences, workshops, meetups, and podcast recordings. The platform renders them in a chronological calendar and sends them to the sitemap with event structured data for Google’s event search features.
Files live in content/events/ and are named by date and slug: 2026-06-15-event-name.md.

## About the Workshop
Most boardroom conversations are shaped more by what management chooses to present than by what directors choose to ask. This two-and-a-half-hour workshop — led by Dr. Priya Nair with two experienced non-executive directors as co-facilitators — is designed to change that ratio.
The session draws on Dr. Nair's research into board dynamics at financial institutions, forensic case analysis of governance failures, and practical questioning frameworks used by effective NEDs across Europe.
## What You Will Learn
- Why boards systematically receive too much data and too little signal — and how to reverse the ratio
- The three categories of question that distinguish effective NEDs from passive ones
- How to read a board pack in 90 minutes and identify the three things management doesn't want to discuss
- The art of the follow-up question: how to probe without antagonising management
- Structuring board-only sessions so they generate insight rather than complaint

## Who Should Attend
Non-executive directors, aspiring NEDs, governance professionals, and chairs who want to improve the quality of boardroom dialogue. The session is suitable for all board experience levels; participants with 10+ years of board experience often find the case analysis most valuable.
## Format
The in-person element is capped at 24 participants (at the Amsterdam venue). Virtual attendance via Zoom is available for up to 16 additional participants. Recordings will not be made available — the session is designed for candid discussion.
