Director and Board Development
Agile programmes with fresh and relevant content that confront the challenges Business Leaders are facing today
Leadership and Governance has rarely been more crucial to enable robust planning, critical analysis and strategic impetus which benefit and grow our businesses. The past two years have been a time for business leaders to think and act quickly in response to a continuously evolving business environment. Looking after the interests of multiple other people, it is often difficult to make time to stop and think about yourself and recharge your batteries for the next period. Seldom has it been more important to devote time to understanding yourself, your leadership approach and establishing how you can best build and deploy your strengths.
Led by business professionals with a wealth of cross sector experience bringing topics and themes to life with practice, real world examples, our Director and Board Development series builds and reinforces the competencies needed to be an exemplar Director and leader by covering the vital aspects of directorship and approaches which make these roles more effective to tackle issues, embrace opportunities and lead transformational change.

With responsibility for the oversight of strategic change in organisation and legal obligations, Boards need to work together to make informed yet hard choices which are right for the business.

In House and Bespoke Development
All of our workshops could be delivered to your own team, in house or even virtually if your employees are spread across the globe.
If our workshops don’t address the needs of your business, give us a call and one of our Programme Facilitators will work with you to determine how we can help.
Board Evaluations
Managers and employees are regularly appraised, financial accounts are audited, and progress against business plans measured.
As a group of leaders, how frequently is your Board evaluated to ensure it has the skills, competencies, and attributes to perform for the business?
Chairs should consider regular evaluation in line with the UK Corporate Governance Code which provides a full diagnosis and analysis of the Board.
We evaluate boards in a variety of ways that suit the client, such as one-to-one interviews or questionnaires, then carry out full diagnosis and analysis that can be sent to the Chair or presented at a Board meeting.
