Board Meetings Cadence

Attendees in general and board directors specifically, tend to be guilty in coming to board meetings unprepared. This could have a devastating effect on decisions being made. Board Chairs/Presidents should be vigilant in identifying repeat culprits and calling them out.

Who should attend board meetings? Besides board directors, board meetings should be attended by the CEO/ED/MD as the head of the organization along with their top leadership team. Boards should not meet without the head of the organization and boards should also be exposed to the top leadership bench. Sounds straight forward, but, unfortunately, not always followed.
