Boost the effectiveness of your board when you give directors the opportunity to develop themselves and their ability to interact with one another.

The expectation on directors to get their oversight of an organisation right and to make the right decisions at the right time, has never been greater. Being a non-executive director (NED) is a career in its own right. We live in an increasingly volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous world, making the role of non-executive director more important and challenging than ever before.

More than ever, board directors are finding the need to keep developing to stay abreast of contextual changes (like the pandemic) that impact the role of the NED. With major contextual change comes the demand for new knowledge, skills and understanding. It can be lonely being a NED or a chair. A coach provides a safe space in which to consider how best to approach dilemma’s, how to develop in the role and how to lead as a successful NED or chair.
