Key Stewards in the Boardroom: Company Secretaries’ Role in High-Performing Boards

Overview

Join us for a candid and insightful conversation as we hear from experienced Company secretaries and Chairs sharing their perspectives on board effectiveness. Positioned at the heart of board operations, Company Secretaries have a front-row seat to the dynamics, behaviours, and practices that contribute to, or detract from, high-performing boards.

Our guest speakers will reflect on what truly makes a board effective, how governance frameworks effectively translate into practice inside and outside the boardroom, and the behavioural factors that influence boardroom culture and decision-making. This is a unique opportunity to hear from the influential figures that help shape and support board effectiveness.

This event is held in collaboration with the Institute of Directors.
