Director Development Course - How to Build a World Class Board

We aim to bring you the very best Director development offer at a price that works for businesses of all shapes and size across Greater Manchester and the North of England.

One of the top reason’s companies fail, is the quality of their board. As most companies are run and owned by the same people, confusion is rampant You need to ask yourself, ‘Am I wearing my shareholder hat, my management hat or my Director hat?’ - All of these roles come with a different specification and level of responsibility.

In some companies, it’s a sad fact that individuals sometimes get promoted beyond their competence levels. If that promotion ends up in the board room, this may cause huge problems for the company and subsequently, the rest of the board members.

Equally it’s a fact that companies outgrow their incumbent members. In other words, a perfectly competent board of yesteryears is now finding business growth beyond their capabilities. Whilst playing fantasy football can be a fun distraction, it’s not a game to play when restructuring the board of directors.

The course will be led by award-winning trainer and Director Jo Haigh.

The course will cover:

✓ Analysing the strengths and weaknesses in the board and plan your actions

✓ Change the people or change the people

✓ The new future proof board what it looks like

✓ Talent identification and retention

✓ Continuous improvement and the learning board

Take a look below at the highlights from our previous Director development course.
