Part 1: What make a Board Effective?
When meetings are nothing more than a review of the pre reads, boards suffer immense opportunity costs: lost collaboration, missed questions and unsaid moments of genius — the things that make meetings worth having.
We believe it all comes down to having the right mix of processes, people and reporting to ensure meetings remain engaging and facilitate effective decision-making.
Listen to our guest expert Julie Garland McLellan to learn:
- The processes for engaging the board in productive discussion
- How to build a robust and defensible decision framework
- Mechanisms for building consensus across the board
- Methods for monitoring and reporting on matters as they arise
- How to use consent agenda as a method for making productive use of meeting time
