The Importance of Board Meetings

Board Meetings are regular events where the leadership of the company is able to meet with key stakeholders in order to discuss crucial business issues. It is important that the board of director’s remain in contact and on the same page, particularly during critical moments such as an M&A deal or even a potential threat. A consistent agenda will ensure that meetings are focused on most important business issues instead of rehashing information that is outdated.

The most important aspect of an executive board meeting is the discussion of the company’s strategic direction. The board should consider strategies and determine an execution plan to encourage progress. It is also helpful to work together on any challenges the company may encounter and develop a plan of how to overcome them.

During this part of the meeting, chiefs of departments or committees typically submit a report to the board. These reports could include milestones, financial results and KPI’s as well as product roadmaps and the progress of the organization. This section is typically dedicated to discussing future strategies and evaluating whether the company is on the right course to achieve its goals.

The board will then look over any issues that haven’t been resolved or require formal approval. Based on the company, the board might vote on a variety of topics including changing the corporate’s articles of incorporation as well as authorizing certain transactions or ratifying an earlier decision of the board. It is important to make sure that a quorum are present to take a vote on the issue.
