MondouxRollins Partners Announces Session Three Panelists for the 2024 Canada’s Best Private Boards Summit and Awards
October 9, 2024
Toronto, ON
MondouxRollins Partners Inc., the Founders of Canada’s Best Private Boards, is excited to announce the session four panelists for the topic “Step Outside Your Echo Chamber: How Independent Directors Drive the Performance of Private Companies”.
Are you hesitant to bring outside perspectives onto your private-company board? Are you thinking of adding independent directors to your board, but don't know where to start? Mark Wednesday, November 6th on your calendar, get your tickets here for Canada’s Best Private Boards Summit and Awards 2024, and be ready for insights during our special session on how independent directors can elevate private company performance.
We’re honoured to have Jerry Bouma (Chair of the Advisory Board, The Little Potato Company Ltd), Doug McDonald (Strategic and Financial Advisor), and Marco Pagani (Chairman of the Board of Directors, Quantropi Inc.), take the stage. The panel features a special introduction from Lynne Murphy-Rivera, the Managing Director of the Americas at the Association of Executive Search and Leadership Consultants (AESC).
Private company founders can be allergic to formal governance, let alone the idea of bringing someone in “from the outside”. But did you know reluctance to embrace external perspectives – especially on a board – is not only increasing organizational risk but also holding back performance? In this session, we will unpack strategies for bringing external perspectives on to your board, including independent director recruitment, compensation and integration. We will also discuss how being purposeful about recruiting diverse independents (in experience, perspectives and backgrounds) can both de-risk the business and be a significant driver of organizational performance – even if you start small.
Stay tuned for more session announcements!
