ILA - The Luxembourg Institute of Governance’s Post

Serving on a government board is an great way to contribute to our community and deal with complex, interesting issues not covered by private sector boards. At the Australian Institute of Company Directors #AustralianGovernanceSummit2024 I shared some of the factors a director should consider when deciding to join a government board: - Type of entity - there are many different types of government boards – some are commercial, others regulatory or advisory, some have a large scope of responsibility and others are limited - Board’s power – the law and government policy may limit the board’s power including its ability to make board appointments, set the strategy and appoint the CEO - Board composition – a set of full skills may not be represented on the board because its membership is prescribed by the law It’s also important to bring to the role tolerance for the opaqueness of government, the both slow and fast nature of government decision making and that the portfolio minister may directly intervene. Contributing your skills and experience to a government board is a very important pursuit. Going into the role with your ‘eyes wide open’ is the best way to make that a rewarding experience.👁️ Thanks to former senior public servant and company director Jane Halton AO PSM FAICD and Australian Public Sector Commissioner Gordon de Brouwer who also joined me on the panel. #boards #leadership #ESG Mark Rigotti Marina Go AM Christian Gergis Larry Marshall Wayne Spanner Fred Grimwade Belinda Rowe Catherine Brenner Lauren Williams Jane Neale Anne Hatton Josephine Sukkar AM Michelle Burke
