This week’s Boardroom Hustle episode features Steven Bowman, a seasoned governance advisor, global entrepreneur and author (of 14 books!). Amongst his other businesses, Steven is the Managing Director of Conscious Governance, an international business that works with nonprofits and corporations to help create the future, specifically focussed in areas such as strategic planning, governance, risk management and leadership development. 

Steven joins us today to provide deep insights into the challenges often faced in the boardroom, and applies his vast knowledge and experience to the thought-provoking question: do you think we’ll even have boards in the future?

Paul and Steven discuss topics like:

• What is ‘strategic awareness’?
• Why his business is called Conscious Governance
• Can we measure levels of consciousness? And if so, how?
• How we can make strategic awareness an unstoppable force
• The interpersonal challenges directors can face in the boardroom, and how to overcome them
• Steven’s advice for those who might be up against a fellow director with stubborn personal preferences
• How does a great chair(person) operate?
• How can we ask powerful questions that can potentially change the dynamics of a board?
• The greatest gift to an organisation, and how they can receive it
• The one single thing that can make a board irrelevant
