The New Director

Induction and the First Hundred Days

In-house, for your board or team

What it covers

Preparing for a first board seat: the Seat Test's six questions before acceptance, the Induction Architecture's one principle and four files, and the Hundred-Day Discipline's three phases with exit tests.

What you leave with

The Hundred-Day Plan: Seat Test findings, four files with owners and dates, and three exit tests, plus the New Seat Register.

Learning outcomes

  • Apply the Seat Test to a defensible accept, negotiate or decline position.
  • Design an induction against the four files of the Induction Architecture.
  • Run the three phases and state each phase's exit test.

Who it is for

Emerging leaders preparing for a first board seat, first-appointment directors, and chairs who own others' induction.
