How to build a successful board for your company - great resources
Last week, Utah's chapter of the NACD (nat'l assoc of corp. directors), UTC and MWCN co-sponsored a
luncheon on building a great board of Directors called "Boards that
Work - How CEO's Find Them and Flourish". Jim Jensen was the moderator
and the materials provided had a lot of value along with the
discussion. He has graciously posted them on his website and I wanted
to recommend them to you, as many entrepreneurs either are wrestling with creating a strong board, or should be, but haven't started the
process yet!
The overall site for articles on governance from Jim is here
In particular I recommend that you start on Page 5 and read the
"discussion questions". It really gets at the issues of recruiting a
strong board and things to consider in that process. The first 5 pages
are about the dynamics of an existing board, and very insightful if you
already have a functioning board that may or may not be working.
