The Importance of Board Room Training
Board rooms are where important decisions are made that affect everyone from the people the company employs, to investors who own its shares, and finally the entire economy. These rooms don’t need to be extravagant In reality, they’re just regular conference rooms large enough to accommodate all of the participants and come with an ample table to accommodate the board’s documents and other things needed during the meeting. What they need is a place in which they can engage in an open and honest discussion that promotes collaboration and the best decision-making.
To achieve this goal boardroom training is essential for all board members as well as the executive secretary of the company or the person who supports them. These courses impart the knowledge and skills needed to be an effective board member and also examine behavioural, psychological and cultural aspects which contribute to efficient governance and boardroom dynamics.
Boardroom Mastery ™ is an interactive board simulation which gives participants the chance to improve their leadership abilities in a safe, challenging and secure environment. Every participant will be given an individual session with a specialist in organizational psychologist who will examine his or her own personal behaviours to help them understand how this can impact their decision-making. Over three days, the participants are part of a committee that is pushed to think about realistic situations of governance and crises.
