“It helped me to hear that other people experience similar issues and similar things and that they want to investigate and improve things with best market practices.”
– Leo Nuttall, Company Secretary, Zempler Bank
“Very useful event, really good to hear different perspectives on what people think the role of a CoSec is in helping the board perform at a high level. The key takeaway is that the CoSec is in a privileged position and they’re capable of impacting the way the board works and they are in a unique position in helping the board up its performance if they take it seriously and take the time to really think about how they can help the board perform better.”
– Luke Thomas, CoSec, Softcat plc
“I really enjoyed it. It’s Always interesting to hear the reaction from the way that things are working in boardrooms from company secretaries are there, it’s a really important learning for all of us.”
– Peter Swabey, Policy & Research Director, The Chartered Governance Institute
