There are some 45,000 condo directors in Ontario. Overworked and under thanked, these men and women are essential to the governance and functioning of some 12,000 condos. But who are these people and what is expected of them? In this webinar we cover everything you never dared to ask about condo directors: How they work; What makes them work and what makes them fail. Who can be on a board of directors and who should not.
