The Program

10 Reasons Boards Fail

10 Reasons Boards Fail is a Board Success Guide that aims to provide essential governance education that is cost-effective, accessible and easily understood. The program can be used to measure the competency of new and existing directors to address any weaknesses and guide additional training. This survival guide takes you on a journey through all areas of board operations, highlighting the 10 Reasons Boards Fail, and what you can do as a board member to prevent board failure from occurring.

Skills Building

Board members need a range of competencies to be effective. These training materials explain the required skills in the major areas of planning, governance, financial management and human resource management. The Skills Building module can be used to conduct a skills audit to identify training needs.

Board Ball

Board members need a range of skills and team-playing abilities to be effective. The Board Ball training materials highlight the required skills of the chairman (or captain) and other important players that ensure the success of a board and, equally, a football team. Ambrose believes that training should be simplified wherever possible and we use analogies and story-telling/games to encourage participation and engagement.

Comply and Build

Comply and Build governance training was designed and produced by Ambrose Business Solutions (Ambrose) and Board Matters to provide board members and company directors with practical training needed to enact good governance in their board member roles. The topics covered in Comply and Build are an adjunct to the ThinkAbout Your Decision governance training program that covers other issues which present in the boardroom environment, such as the board vision, mission, values, objectives, and processes.

Plan It

The Plan It training materials contains essential elements of planning and managing for organisations. Understanding and paying attention to the elements of planning and managing outlined in these materials will help board members to be more successful in their attempts to manage themselves and the board and organisation that they serve.
