A sense of entitlement belongs no where- but especially not in the board of directors space, where it has been a constant paradigm since class, privilege and business first arose in human society. My test? If you truly believe you are entitled to a board position simply because of who you perceive yourself to be, then I would say no. ( this is not to be confconfused with believing you can bring true value to the board and the organization from their perspective, not yours) I would also add, if you covet the board position, you shouldn’t be there- because your true independent judgment of what’s best for the organization, its staff, stakeholders and customers, will be clouded by your own self preservation. #governance #aicd #oversight #boardofdirectors #companydirector #entitlement #priveledge #responsibility Australian Institute of Company Directors Evan Dukas Anand Tatavarthi Lyn George

🌟 Wednesday Wisdom: On the Eve of Recognition 🌟 As we find ourselves just one day away from the Yorkshire Accountancy Awards, a moment of reflection and anticipation fills the air at our firm. It's an honour to stand among the shortlisted, recognized not just in one, but in two distinguished categories: Independent Firm of the Year and Niche Firm of the Year. 🏆 While the excitement is undeniable, today's wisdom revolves around the journey rather than the destination. Being shortlisted alongside some truly fantastic peers is a win in itself. It's a testament to the hard work, dedication, and unique approach we bring to the table every day. 🌱 Winning would be the cherry on top, but it's the inclusion that truly warms our hearts. It reaffirms that what we're doing resonates within our industry and, more importantly, provides value to those we serve. This recognition is a reminder of why we started, why we persist, and why we'll continue to innovate and lead with integrity and passion. 💼 So, as we look forward to tomorrow's announcement, let's remember that success isn't solely measured by trophies or titles, but by the impact we make, the lives we touch, and the community we build and serve. Here's to celebrating every milestone, big or small, and to the continued pursuit of excellence, regardless of the outcome. 🌟 What are you wins this week? No matter how small they are? #WednesdayWisdom #YorkshireAccountancyAwards #CelebratingSuccess #Gratitude

What directors think: a new report Every year since 2002, Corporate Board Member has been surveying public company board members in the United States to take their pulse on the issues that were top of mind, the challenges they faced in the year to come and the processes they sought to improve. For this 20th anniversary edition, in a year of continued tumult on many fronts, Corporate Board Member partnered with the Diligent Institute to see what has changed since SOX was the hot issue and what is on the horizon for the years ahead. Overall, 300 qualifying directors participated in the research. Major board dynamics, practices and trends are represented in this report. #corporategovernance #boardofdirectors #firmperformance #staretgy #genderdiversity #CEO #independentdirectors

One of the key points the report talks about is the concern over the ''ever increasing time requirement of the directors attributed to increasing responsibilities''. Food for thought: Is Gender and Skillset diversity the answer to this ? #diversityandinclusion #corporategovernance #icsi #cgi #leadership #iod #directors
