Most boards don’t fail because of bad people. They fail because the right people aren’t at the table when it counts.
Maartje van Krieken sits down with Dr. Keith Dorsey, the founder of Boardroom Journey, to talk about what makes a board truly effective, and why board composition strategy should never be an afterthought. If your company is scaling fast or hitting friction, are the voices in your boardroom equipped to help you grow? Dr. Dorsey shares why defaulting to well-known CEOs and CFOs can backfire, and how to identify the real gaps in expertise that could be holding you back.
They dig into how thoughtful board refreshment can increase board impact on growth, and what it takes to align governance with the company’s next chapter. The conversation also looks at the fallout from virtual-only board interactions, and why relationship-building still matters more than efficiency.
As Dr. Dorsey puts it, the goal isn’t just filling seats. It’s making sure the people in them can see what’s coming and ask the right questions when the pressure hits.
