Onboarding Support
-
"For anyone joining a new board, a learning curve comes with the territory. Just how steep that curve is and how quickly a new board member is able to contribute meaningfully to board and committee meetings depends directly on the quality of the induction and onboarding process", Florin Janine Krapp, Member of the Board Leadership Center.
It takes time to truly understand the business – its operations, strategies, risks, and management team – as well as the responsibilities and culture of the board and its committees. A structured induction program can greatly accelerate a new member’s integration and contribution to the board’s work. An effective program includes essential information and briefing materials, quality discussions with key people and a roadmap for getting up to speed.
