Sharing the Experience Reports
Whether creating, reshaping or re-engaging with your advisory board, we can help.
Adding value to the impact your advisory board is having on your business school does need focus. We can help through facilitated discussions in your next board meeting and by capturing their stories to provide marketing and communications content for increased board member visibility.
Feedback as to the value your board are delivering will increase their engagement: we can devise measures for them to understand better where they are having impact, now and in the future and identify areas where additional value can be gained.
We have a selection of Advisory Board support available to help you, see the list below.

Support Creating or Re-shaping your Advisory Board POA
Understanding that one size certainly doesn't fit all, we will help you get the thinking right from the very beginning to create an effective advisory board for your school. First analysing the expertise and diversity your school requires to deliver your mission and strategic goals, we will then work with you to identify potential board members aligned with your school values. We will help you to draw together the optimum mix of experience, expertise and demographics to generate maximum creativity in the discussions around your boardroom table.
