Board rooms are the place where crucial decisions are taken. These decisions affect everyone, from the employees of the company to the shareholders who own the shares and ultimately the economy. The rooms don’t have to be anything fancy In reality, they’re just standard conference rooms big enough to accommodate all of participants and have a table big enough to hold the board papers and other things needed during the meeting. What they require is a place in which they can have an open conversation that is honest and encourages collaboration and the best decision-making.
To reach this goal, boardroom training is essential for all board members as well as the company secretary or governance professional who helps them. These courses provide the necessary knowledge and skills to be an effective board member and also examine behavioural, psychological and cultural aspects that influence successful governance and boardroom dynamics.
Boardroom Mastery ™ is an interactive board simulation which gives participants the chance to improve their leadership abilities in an environment that is safe and challenging. Every participant will be given a one-on-one session with an organizational psychologist who will look at his or her individual behaviours to aid them in understanding how these can impact their decision-making. For three days, participants participate in a board that is tested with real governance and crises scenarios.
Designed with experienced leaders in mind The designed with experienced leaders in mind, Boardroom Mastery is only available to those who are invited and is offered as part of the NACD Accelerate program. Find out more information about the program and how you can join here.
