Developing directors

Abstract

How do directors see the challenges and opportunities facing their companies today? What role do they feel they themselves should play in facilitating a response? And how should directors be prepared for boardroom appointments? These and other questions have been asked in a number of organizational and competency surveys which have either been undertaken by Adaptation Ltd, or with which the company has been associated. The results show that facilitating competencies are assuming greater importance and that new routes to the boardroom are emerging. The work upon which the surveys are based was carried out over a two-year period from June 1988-May 1990.
