Course Overview

In business the Board of Directors steer the corporate ship on behalf of their members or shareholders. Consequently, their core function is the setting of organizational strategy, mission, vision and values while simultaneously ensuring compliance with all relevant corporate governance prescripts and legislation.

All shareholders have a vested interest in their respective institutions and have entrusted the Board of Directors with the responsibility to ensure that the company remains viable and profitable. The Board of Directors’ function therefore, is to ensure the realization of the corporate strategic vision while consistently maintaining oversight responsibility.

Boards of directors include functional directors, who perform operational duties at the company, and external directors, who can make impartial judgments. The top structure of all management teams must include a CEO, a CFO and a COO.

The Board chair oversees the work of the Board and the organization’s senior management team. Other roles on the Board include, Vice chair or vice president, Secretary and the Treasurer.  Ad hoc committees are formed by co-opting members of the Board to manage specific tasks. The Board of Directors take a vote on the selection of committee members. Members have the option of accepting or declining nomination or selection to a committee.

Average board size is 9 members. Most boards in an organization range from 3 to 31 members. The ideal size is seven. To support the Board, two critical board committees are made up of independent members. The CEO is the senior executive while the board chairperson is the head of the board of directors. Boards must meet every quarter to set strategy, review and monitor the financial reports, review organizational performance, evaluate and oversee the executives, and vote on major decisions.
