The Role The Chair Plays “The initial role was to convince the CEO that the time was right for us to complete the 360. Also to brief the NEDs as to their involvement” “Chair to achieve buy in from all Board members a. to do it b. to action the feedback” “I found the main role of the chair was to Provide reassurance: that it would be helpful, not intrusive, a learning opportunity, not a chore; a means of knowing ourselves better, not just going through the motions” “An enthusiastic welcoming of the process and a commitment to use the outcome proactively “Launch it and then use it as a personal and board development tool process, not a performance tool”

What the Chair Needs to Know about the Journey “The timing is important – when the board has reached a point of maturity that it can accept issues raised and work together to learn from them” “A heavy workload” “Taught us not to neglect the softer issues Of bringing board together in joint Enterprise” “Not always comfortable” “Confidentiality” “An opportunity to recognise how much we have achieved and how well the board has developed given our challenges when the PCT was established”
