** Listen to this episode here https://lnkd.in/e6gu6JSr ** One of the questions I often ask board members I work with is "When was the last time you looked critically at where your time was actually going?" Most boards aren't short of agenda items. If anything, they're overloaded. The risk is that important discussions become crowded out by urgent discussions, and strategic conversations are squeezed between compliance, reporting, and operational updates. A Chair plays a critical role in helping a board focus its collective attention on the "big rocks". The decisions, risks, opportunities, and future-focused conversations that will have the greatest impact on the organisation. Really enjoyed exploring this topic with Mark Banicevich in this Governance Bites episode. I'd also be interested to hear from others; what techniques have you seen work well for keeping board discussions focused on what matters most?
