Leveraging the Board’s Contacts and Influence

When directors join boards, they bring not only a wealth of experience but also extensive contacts.  But what’s the best way to leverage both?  Private company board members will discuss how to best take advantage of their business relationships to the benefit of the company.  What do these board members wish they were asked to do, and what do they feel uncomfortable with?

Your board is gathered. Now comes the hard part: how to make sure the meeting is successful. What makes an efficient and productive board meeting?  We’ll look at what should be on the agenda, how to avoid presenting the same material that board members have reviewed in advance and how to leave ample space for thought-provoking conversation.

Recruit and Retain the Best Board Members

This two-step process requires the answering of a series of questions: Do we have board expertise in all the areas that we need? Are we diversifying our board in a way that is reflective of our company values? Are we being selective with our candidates and not settling for the first qualified candidate? And then, once we’ve selected the best board members, are we engaging them in a fashion that would drive them to want to continue as long-term board members?
