PARTNER WITH MARY MOREL TO IMPROVE YOUR BOARD REPORTINGDirectors often complain that their board and committee reports are too long, dense, waffly and difficult to read. To understand these reports, directors must dig into the detail and this can distract them from their oversight and monitoring role. Regular reports can be frustrating for executives too. Their teams spend ages preparing reports each month or quarter and receive negative feedback. To make matters worse, directors sometimes ask for more information because they don't understand all the detail.TAKE THE FRUSTRATION OUT OF BOARD REPORTINGWork with me to take the pain out of board reporting. After a few months, you will see a real and lasting difference to your regular reports and your team will have greater confidence in their writing skills.Directors will thank you for the clarity and brevity of your team's writing and, in the long run, you will save time. Preparing, writing and editing reports will be more efficient – and even enjoyable – for everyone involved. ‘Working with Mary on our organisation's risk and compliance reports improved their quality and saved me time.
