About BYB

About Build Your BoardBYB (est. 2011) works with  organisations who wish to develop an effective and efficient Board of Executive and Non Executive Directors, with a strong focus for excellence in disciplines such as;

  1. Corporate Governance
  2. Financial Management & Compliance
  3. Strategic Direction
  4. Quality Assurance & Integrity

We help build a Board for our clients that will mirror the needs of the organisation in operational focus while providing leadership and strategic direction. By placing good corporate governance at the centre of all our thinking and advice, we help to match the Board with the operational management requirements of the organisation. It is our strong belief that the skill set and knowledge of the Board should compliment the management divisions of the organisation. This will minimise the risk of reliance on information presented to the Board by external and internal experts such as finance, compliance and marketing just to mention a few. We explore the validity of conventional wisdom in building or perfecting a Board by addressing the relative importance of basic behaviours such as;

  • Board Member engagement
  • Board Member experience and knowledge mix
  • Board Size and Role of Committees
  • Board Member Meeting attendances & Contribution
  • Board Member development & succession
