Our mission at Better Boards is to contribute to creating better boards. We do this by providing clients with an evidence-based approach to board evaluations and development programmes. To fulfil our mission, we give a voice to all who are care about creating better boards - Chairs, CEOs, SIDs, NEDs, Company Secretaries, Academicians, investors, and regulators. All the views expressed in our podcasts are those of our podcast partners and not those of Better Boards. In each episode, you’ll get insights from those at the frontline. Every time you tune in, you develop and reinvigorate your board know-how and practice with insights, creative problem-solving, and practical advice. New episodes are available every 1st and 3rd Thursday of the month.
