IDsquared specialises in Non-Executive Director recruitment and we believe that A Non-Executive Director, like everybody else involved in company leadership, can alway develop their leadership skills and build their experiences.
There are many ways to develop such skills, below are a few ideas but feel free to let us know what works for you:
Mentoring
It is often thought that Non-Executive Directors should play a mentoring role in their relationship with the Chief Exec of the business on whose Board they sit. Perhaps they should, but sometimes Non-Executive Directors themselves would enjoy and benefit from mentoring. We can introduce you to some extremely experienced Non-Executive Directors who would be happy to act as a mentor, either formally or informally.
Peer Group Coaching
This is a method of coaching which brings together company leaders (usually Chief Executives or Non-Executive Directors) in a confidential environment to discuss issues and hear from high quality, specialist speakers. IDsquared works with peer group coaching specialists in the South East, South West, Midlands and North West of England and we would be delighted to introduce you to a group near you.
One To One Coaching (Personal Coaching)
Non-Executive Directors, more than most Board members, tend to recognise the value of coaching. The most important thing when choosing a coach is that you use somebody who is experienced and has a good understanding of the area in which you work. Our Chairman, Jay Hale, will be able to give you some tips when choosing a coach.
If you would like to discuss Non-Executive Director development, do please give us a call or drop us an e-mail; we’d be delighted to point you in the right direction or hear your recommendations. You will also find a few other blog articles on leadership development.
