While directors may possess the skills and qualifications needed to govern, strong dynamics and relationships between board members make a board more effective. The programme will focus on how boardroom culture, attitude and behaviour matter in defining and shaping the exercise of accountability in and around the boardroom. This understanding is vital to strengthening corporate governance. The programme consists of two parts: Module one of this programme will allow participants to gain insights into the importance of boardroom dynamics in contributing to an effective board. Module two of this programme will provide participants an immersive experience into board dynamics through a board meeting simulation exercise. The simulation will include roles played by experienced directors who will ensure the board discussion reflects the reality in the boardroom. Constructive feedback will be provided to enhance the learning.

 

Learning Outcomes

  • Recognise the types of board cultures through an understanding of the key culture dimensions
  • Identify the impact of attitude, behaviours and culture in shaping positive group dynamics
  • Demonstrate the ability to read the types of board cultures and apply the new learnings to participate effectively in the boardroom
