When lining up
your board team
Board assignments
As board or advisory board member I can help bringing international know-how from large corporates at eye-level with management and employees. By striking the right balance between management and leadership I help both creating and making the good plans happen.
I am burning to help SME:s creating profitable growth, for example by innovation of new products/services, business models, international growth, branding and omni-channel strategies. Focuses on customer driven use of digital technologies, and always in search of new opportunities within both supply chain and sales, with an eye for customers demanding more for less, as well as sustainability.
Five value-adding reasons to get a professional board
If your company doesn’t already have a professional board, here are five good reasons to do so:
- Avoid feeling alone with the challenges at the top
- Help to develop the right plans and execute the plans right
- Fast access to experience of new trends, e.g. technology, digitization, CSR/ESG, UN*s Sustainable Development Goals and transformational leadership
- Help to handle large complexity and unpredictability within short deadline´
- Get ahead with the best generational change or sale of the company
Board fees are an affordable expense to full-time employing and integrating experienced executives into your corporate culture. It can even be a valuable investment because the team's profiles can over time adapt to changing challenges. An advisory board could aslo be a good way to test the value of a professional board.
