Chantel Cabaj | Encouraging Openness to Potential from Governance and Diversity, and Enhancing Team-based Board Performance at DirectHer Network and BoardWell

Unlocking Business Growth - exploring achievements, challenges and what's interesting

Governance, which is effective decision making, is gaining increasing recognition as ESG measurement and reporting becomes more mainstream. Boards of directors are being held increasingly accountable to fully perform their strategic and governance role for their organizations; no longer serving a purpose to rubber-stamp management decisions where they are called to serve the best interests of the organization and stakeholders.

But how does an organization access a diverse pool of qualified board candidates and perform at their best with a united vision of their strategy and operation? Enter DirectHer Network to open governance to a broader community, with an emphasis on women, and BoardWell to train boards of directors to work as a team with an agreed definition of strategy and activity.
