Overview

The role of company secretaries has expanded beyond their traditional role. As the link between the board and management, they should be assertive and capitalize on their role as the only person who has access to all aspects of the organization’s business. How can company secretaries obtain the confidence of their board members and become governance advisers instead of just assistants to the Board?

How can they gain a ‘seat at the table’ by adding value to discussions on business strategy, operations and risk management? How can they provide valuable guidance to management about the information that the board requires in order to make informed decisions? How can they assist to improve board dynamics and the relationship between the board and management?
