Show Notes

Kate is a legend in our industry, is a multiple times board member herself as well as having reported to boards in a wide variety of roles.  She is currently Chief Trust Officer at Aon.  Allan and Kate have intended to get her down to The Cyber Ranch for some time, but the stars finally aligned in this fantastic episode jam-packed with great advice.

 

Do please forgive the sound quality on this one.  It was recorded on the road, and the conversation was too amazing to re-record despite the quality issues.

 

Kate and Allan cover:

  • Best human approaches in board communicating – everything but the presentation itself
  • How to get to know your board both individually and collectively
  • What to present
  • What not to present
  • Best tips and tricks overall
