Board rooms are where the most important decisions are taken. These decisions affect everyone from employees of the company to the investors who own the shares and ultimately the economy. The rooms don’t have to be extravagant they are simply regular conference rooms that are large enough to seat all of the participants and equipped with a table big enough to accommodate the papers of the board and other things needed during the meeting. What they require is a place to have an open and honest debate that encourages collaboration and efficient decision-making.
Training in the boardroom is crucial for all board members, as well as the company secretary and the professional in governance who support them. These courses cover a broad spectrum of knowledge needed to be successful as a board member and additionally explore behavioural as well as psychological and cultural aspects that are essential to effective governance and the dynamics of the boardroom.
