Chairing the Advisory Board
The Independent Chair's Discipline
Open enrolment and in-house
What it covers
Advisory chairing as a distinct craft held without decision rights: the six-part Chairing Discipline, running deliberation without authority to decide, managing the principal relationship, and policing the counsel boundary.
What you leave with
The Chair's Brief: a one-page discipline skeleton across the six disciplines with named counterparts and a dated next step, plus the Drift Register.
Learning outcomes
- State why fiduciary chairing instincts breach rather than serve the advisory boundary.
- Apply the Chair's Test and defend a holds, drifting or lost finding.
- Convert advice into decisions the formal bodies legitimately own.
Who it is for
Directors, sitting or prospective family-business advisory board chairs, C-suite executives, founders and family principals.
