Are You Ready To Be a Director?

Are You Ready To Be a Director?

A lot of people want to become a company director, whether paid or as a volunteer, but have not considered the personal risks and obligations involved.

In today’s world directors face increasing scrutiny, more regulatory expectations and growing stakeholder accountability. In law, ignorance of the law is no defence. Non- Executive Directors now have to be active overseers, not passive observers.

Here are 3 tips:

  • Check Check
    Don’t just show up, be prepared
  • Check Check
    Engage deeply with Board reports and risks
  • Check Check
    Challenge assumptions and seek clarity
  • Check Check
    If you are appointed as the Chair, consider your role as the anchor of the Board to be highly effective.

Consider the workload with regular Board meetings you must attend, the board papers to read prior to meetings, travel to the company sites and events, the regular emails ands phone calls to deal with and the AGM.

Ask yourself:

  • Check Check
    Am I prepared to be personally accountable?
  • Check Check
    Do I have the time to do this properly?
  • Check Check
    Will I challenge the Board and management when needed?
  • Check Check
    Are the company’s governance and compliance structures sound?
  • Check Check
    Are you ready to be a director?
