Welcome to the Better Boards podcast series.
Thank you for listening to the Better Boards podcast series. I am Sabine Dembkowski, Founder and Managing Partner of Better Boards. Our mission at Better Boards is to contribute to creating better boards. We do this by providing clients with an evidence-based approach for board evaluations and board development programmes.
To fulfil our mission, we give a voice to all who are care about creating better boards. Every 1st and 3rd Thursday of the month, I speak with those that are serving on boards about topics that are high on the board’s agenda.
All the views expressed in our podcasts are the views of our podcast partners and NOT those of Better Boards.
In this episode, I am delighted to talk with Sarah Walker-Smith.
