Goals

The Board is the strategic body of every company, it sets the "why" and the "how". Old boys' networks are not effective anymore in finding the right people. Are you a new Independent Director or an Executive getting ready to take on board mandates? Or an experienced Director who wishes to reposition on the market and is looking for new challenges?
