My Board Advisory Approach

As a Board Advisor and Certified Independent Director, there is a shared responsibility of ensuring continued top performance by the leadership team across various stages and levels of the organisation. Sustainable businesses are driven by self-propelling teams with a high degree of ownership with a growth mindset.

To help your organisation establish such high performance teams, I have created a Four stage Board advisory approach, which are based on my own philosophies learned during my journey with various organisations in C-Suite roles.

These are based on strategic frameworks that capture company vision, leadership assessment, team alignment, and execution tools which I practised during my corporate career spanning over 3 decades. They encompass multiple dimensions of organisation effectiveness, value creation, financial performance, and management accountability.

As a Strategic Coach Mentor, I directly work with CEOs and Founders using my 4 stage methodology empowering them for success. In my role as a Board Advisor, I intend to use the same framework and contribute to the organisation guided by my principles outlined below.

My Four-Stage Board Advisory Approach:

Stage 1: Strategic Clarity

Stage 2: Leadership Alignment
Stage 3: Operating System
Stage 4: Reflect & Reset

In a Board Advisory role, as a certified Corporate Director, I can help the organisation overcome business challenges by dynamically configuring effective strategies and enable scaling up profitably.

Unlock your company potential with possible business outcomes through my Board Advisory Approach at each stage thereby creating a solid foundation for the future.

MY BUSINESS PHILOSOPHIES

BUSINESS OUTCOMES

STAGE 1- Strategic Clarity

The purpose of a company is to deliver profitable growth consistently and create a strong foundation for long term success for all stakeholders.

Strategic Clarity in crafting company mission, objectives and goals based on the business strategy.

Vision, Values and Guiding Principles are sharpened and precisely articulated to ensure that every strategic decision aligns with the company mission.

Clear SMART goals, metrics and milestones to realise company objectives.

STAGE 2 - Leadership Alignment

Authentic leadership is critical for leaders to work cohesively. Only an aligned leadership team will enable sustained success as the business scales up profitably.

Leadership Alignment with company strategy and mission which is translated into functional objectives owned by the team.

Improved Collaboration and trust among board members,also ensuring diverse viewpoints are integrated to arrive at quality decisions.

STAGE 3 - Operating Systems

An autonomous organisation with built in ownership and accountabilities will encourage positive work culture and unleash high productivity.

Healthy, High-performance Culture, translating values and guiding principles into day-to-day actions.

Culture of constructive dialogue among directors and leadership.

High ownership of decisions by Senior leadership while executing the game plan through appropriate HR Operating Systems within the organisation.

STAGE 4- Reflection and Reset

Constant improvement happens through periodic reflection and feedback processes across the organisation. This raises the bar of performance thereby setting higher benchmarks for the future.

Raise the bar of performance by acting as a sounding board, offering support and feedback on leadership styles, decision-making approaches, and communication.

Establishing Accountability Framework that sets clear structures for follow-up, ensuring that the board’s strategic decisions are executed effectively by the executive team.

Continuous Improvement using feedback processes and reflections at both board level and senior management levels thereby resetting the organisation to the next stage.

All of the above four stages are delivered through a series of hybrid sessions along with the board members for the top leadership team of an organisation. All these four stages enhance the board's effectiveness. Emphasis on realising company objectives, team collaboration, and performance accountability can significantly enhance the board’s governance and build the organisation for the future.
