A board of directors meeting allows your company to evaluate the current state of the organization and discuss the new policies that should be implemented. It also allows important discussions to be held concerning issues that could be causing issues. It is important to keep the discussion on track and focused on the major issues. It is equally important to inspire your board members in meetings and give them to speak freely and share their opinions.
In the initial portion of the board’s meeting, the presiding officer starts by reviewing the attendees and making sure that there is a quorum. They then go over the agenda at a high level and then approve the previous minutes of the meeting.
The following portion of the meeting will be focused on reviewing key performance indicators. These could be simple things like net promoter scores regional sales or costs and revenue over a specific financial period. Having these KPIs in place helps your board members see the progress of your company over time and determine if it’s moving in the right direction or if drastic measures are required.
After assessing the present state of your business the board of directors will collaborate on strategies for the future to help your company expand and grow. This can be achieved through a variety of ways for example, discussing upcoming policies, strategies, or projects during the meeting or via a series or interactions outside of the boardroom, such as weekly breakfasts, monthly lunches or informal emails.
