| Caption | Making Corporate Boards More Effective |
| Description | Corporate boards are faced with ever-increasing challenges, and are expected to fulfill a formidable mass of responsibilities in a limited amount of time. These challenges include enabling a group of independent directors to understand their company's business so that they can approve the company's strategy, monitor its performance, evaluate and compensate their chief executive officer, enhance the development of the next generation of top management, and ensure compliance with laws, regulations, and ethical standards. Directors have to seek to improve and nurture their board's effectiveness. The effectiveness with which boards discharge their corporate and statutory responsibilities will substantially affect their performance. They also have to manage the responsibilities of their boards towards customers, suppliers, employees, regulatory bodies, and the general public. The power to improve the performance of corporate board resides almost exclusively within the boards themselves. |
| Programme | The seminar concentrates on cutting-edge techniques, strategies, and action plans for improving board design, refining approaches, maximising individual contributions, and enhancing corporate governance. You will acquire valuable strategies for strengthening board performance, as well as specific ideas for improving your personal contribution to your board. Scope The comprehensive curriculum examines board issues in the overall context of structuring a relationship that not only promotes cooperation between the board of directors and corporate management, but also ensures sound governance. Key topics include: - Making the board more strategic - Corporate governance best practices - Dynamic, constructive board meetings - Effective use of committees - Evaluation of the board and its members - Executive compensation - Perspectives to the legal responsibilities of directors - Board-stakeholders relationships |
