Board of directors meetings, no matter if you are the CEO of an established company or a new startup is essential to the governance of your organization. They provide the framework for collective decision-making and encourage open communication, and ensure compliance with the law. The chair of the board should set agendas for meetings and quorums and board members must be prepared to discuss critical topics and ensure that their discussions are recorded.
Board members often present ideas for strategies to promote growth, like new products or expansion into new markets. They then discuss the strategies and how they can be evaluated, while weighing pros and cons. The board may eventually decide to adopt a particular plan and devise an action plan to implement it within a timeframe.
The board also discuss the opportunities and challenges. This might include evaluating the performance of a particular quarter and determining where things did not go as planned or how to do better next time. This could also include a review of investment options or business opportunities the board believes are worth considering as well as evaluating their risks, costs, and benefits.
Finally, the board will decide on procedural motions and resolutions, for example, amending the company’s statutes, approving specific transactions or the ratification of previous decisions taken by the board. The board can make any needed changes to its personnel or invite observers to join the meeting (accredited investors or other individuals with expertise in the industry who attend but do not vote). It is essential that board members are informed about the purpose and procedure of your organization so they are able to follow the rules in meetings.
