We’re back with Part 2 of our latest episode with Erin Essenmacher, the award-winning documentary film writer, director, producer, and former president and chief strategy officer of the National Association of Corporate Directors (NACD).

(Haven’t listened to Part 1 yet? We suggest you do that first. Context!)

In Part 2, Erin and Paul focus on the big question: should there be agreed standards or even legislation around the required education for directors? 

Or listen on Apple Podcasts, Spotify or Android.

Erin and Paul also dive into:

• Which mindset is found most often in the boardroom; growth, learner or fixed?

• How inexperience can be a positive addition to diversity

• Is it up to companies to educate board members, or the individual directors? 

• The benefits of working with people from different backgrounds, skills and experiences

• Do boards have the right controls in place to make sure the diverse voices feel important and can contribute?

• What does Erin think will change most in the boardroom over the next 20 years?
