What value does an Independent Director add?

If you have a Board, you're showing the world that your business is mature and professional - it shows the world (and your bank manager) that you're doing something right.

A Board:

  • is part of a culture of professionalism and accountability that you should have in your business
  • is the key to enabling business owners understand and feel in control of their business
  • is a vital support for your executive management, providing advice, acting as a sounding board, assisting the resolution of problems among senior management, and ultimately holds management accountable
  • represents a degree of rigour in the running of your business, and reduces the risk in your business as perceived by other stakeholders, particularly investors or lenders
  • demonstrates that you're thinking long term.
