Breakfast with Report Writer
26 March | 8:30 - 10:00am GMT
What will the event cover?
Executives spend days writing board reports. Company Secretaries waste hours rewriting them. And boards spend precious meeting time stuck in operational detail instead of forward-looking strategic discussions - in fact, research with CGI UK shows 68% of organisations rate their board materials as "weak" or "poor".
Join our reporting experts for an in-person, interactive breakfast exploring proven frameworks that break this cycle, drawing on analysis of hundreds of board reports.
During the session, we'll cover:
- Data-backed insights into what makes board reports effective & common pitfalls that trigger paper re-writes
- Practical frameworks for structuring papers that answer directors' key questions
- A live demo of Report Writer - including the chance to see it applied to one of your own papers
Fill in your details to save your space.
