Who This Is For
Built for everyone in the boardroom, and everyone who reports into it, not just the ones with a vote.
Independent Directors
You bring outside judgement to the board, but your legal exposure is identical to every executive director's. Fiduciary duty does not scale down because your role was meant to.
Promoter-Directors
You built the company, and you sit on its board, but the two roles carry different duties that quietly pull against each other the moment the company grows past you.
Nominee Directors
Appointed by an investor or a lender, you carry the same personal liability as everyone else on the board, even though your seat exists to represent someone else's interest.
Company Secretaries & Board Support
You run the board process, the minutes, the resolutions, the compliance calendar. When something is missed, you are usually the first one asked why.
The Programmes
Four ways in, from the fundamentals every director needs to a full evaluation of how your board actually functions.
Half-day
Boardroom Basics
The foundation every director needs, whether new to the board or newly aware of what the seat actually carries. What fiduciary duty means in practice, and where a board's authority actually starts and ends.
- Fiduciary duty, explained without the jargon
- Board authority vs. management authority
- The minutes and resolutions that actually protect you
Full-day
Advanced Board Governance
For boards past the basics. Committee structures, related-party transaction governance, and the decisions that carry the most personal exposure for every director in the room.
- Audit, nomination, and RPT committee design
- Related-party transactions under the current thresholds
- Red flags that should stop a resolution before it passes
2-Day Intensive
Independent Directors Masterclass
A deep, credential-worthy programme for independent and nominee directors. Built around real board packs, real resolutions, and the specific exposure that comes with a seat you did not build the company to hold.
- The independent director's actual legal standing
- Reading a board pack like your liability depends on it, because it does
- Delivered for groups of 15-25 seats, per-seat pricing available
Half-day
Board Evaluation & Committee Effectiveness
Most board evaluations are a compliance checkbox. This session turns the annual evaluation into something the board actually acts on, with a clear view of where governance is working and where it is not.
- Evaluation frameworks that produce real findings
- Turning evaluation results into board action
- Structuring committees around what the evaluation reveals
The Framework Behind It
Rooted in the Ownership Map
You can delegate the work. You cannot delegate the accountability.
Every programme on this page is an application of the same five-layer framework: Money, Control, Decision, Accountability, Continuity. It is not generic training dressed up with your name on it.
It is the same lens Mayank uses in his own advisory practice, adapted into a session your team can sit through together.
