Global turmoil, business disruptions and pandemics have not only turned business standards upside down, but forcibly reshaped how boards govern those organizations.  Here is what directors must know today to be effective.  Best-practice tips and tools (meetings, info, agendas, committees, structure, etc.) that boards around the world use to do a better job, with less effort, leaving more time for high-value boardwork.

The governance of any enterprise is only as good as its board of directors… and that board is only as effective as its chairman.  Yet the board leadership role is not only the most crucial for board effectiveness – it’s also the one with the least training and support.  Board leaders and chief executives too often battle over power.  Here are the secrets of the world’s best board leaders, the “in the boardroom” leadership tricks of long-time board pros.

A company may want to bring its rising managers and diverse talents up to speed on what they must know for boardroom inclusion and effectiveness. This one-day program will give you all you need to know to be effective, informed and ready the moment you walk through those boardroom doors.
