The role of the Non-Executive Director in building future-focused boards

Non-Executive Directors / NED Awards Judges - Hosted Roundtable Panel Discussion

A disruptive risk landscape, a challenging economic environment, and shifting stakeholder expectations are forcing many companies to rethink their purpose and revisit how they operate.

As businesses make key operational changes to secure their future, this webinar explores how non-executive directors can help drive the conversations that will aid their decision-making.

Boards spend considerable time looking backwards at compliance, financial reports, and their broader fiduciary duties. Crises also mean boards focus much of their time on fire fighting. But effective boards are forward looking ,engaging in strategic discussions, and supporting executive leaders with long-term goals.

So how can non-executive directors promote strategic thinking on their boards, and help to drive long term value? 

In this webinar a panel of non-executives on the boards of leading public companies and reputable corporate governance experts will discuss the role of the non-executive director, why they are uniquely placed to help boards and companies think longer term, and specifically what steps they can take to achieve this. Join this free webinar from Board Agenda, and gain valuable insights about raising your boards strategic game.
