Think you understand how boards work? Think again.
In this keynote, Ryan Westwood, entrepreneur, board member, and CEO of Fullcast, reveals the boardroom dynamics that most executives NEVER learn until it's too late.
Keep in mind, this is not a talk about sales, marketing, or RevOps. Instead, this is the career-unlocking discussion that top operators wished they had heard ten years ago.
Ryan breaks down:
The hidden rules of boards that even seasoned CEOs misunderstand.
Why most executives fail to align with their boards and how to avoid getting blindsided.
The exact decisions that should (and should NOT) ever go to a board meeting.
How to instantly read a board's structure to understand a company's speed, culture and risk.
Why board size predicts company momentum and what dysfunctional boards look like.
The governance traps that derail CEOs.
What every future board member must understand before accepting a seat.
Why many CEOs get "railroaded" by their boards and how to prevent it.
The overlooked importance of audited financials (and why Ryan won't work with companies that skip them).
And much more. . .
Whether you're part of a newly formed C-suite, a future founder, or aspiring board member…
These 60 minutes could change the trajectory of your career.
