Just got out of @aboard organised board conference (drivkraft styrekonferansen) and it was really refreshing to hear how much attention they put for professionalising the boardroom and that we go away from having old friends in there, to people with necessary qualities. Because I believe that external board member can give so much, from being good “sparring partner” for owners in leadership positions, to making organisation more professional. But to be fair, it’s a bit of “black hole” when it comes to knowing what skills board members need to have and what skills the board needs to have. Finances, business development, psychology? It’s even more interesting when you think about how many different technologies are integrated and used in every company and how much the boardroom knows about them.
