About This Book

An accessible guide to the business of being a board director, through the lens of 18 crucial conversations.

  • How do you understand what is really going on in an organisation, so you can exercise the oversight that is required from you?
  • How do you overcome the information asymmetry problem, where the executive directors know more about the operation than you do?
  • How will you collaborate as a board to set the right strategic direction in a context that changes constantly?
  • How will you see the organisation through the eyes of your advisors, your employees and your key stakeholders?
  • How can you manage the risks you know about as well as the ones you don't?

Your best tool for all of this is conversation – about the right topics, with the right people, at the right time. This book shows you what these conversations need to cover and how to make them count. Whether you are a new director of a PLC, a long-standing Trustee of a charity, or a governor of an educational institution, this book will help you and your colleagues become the board your organisation needs.
