Testimonial

“The function of a Chair is often misunderstood. It is not one of “master and commander”.  A Chair certainly leads the formalities of a meeting and moves the agenda along, but this is merely a “basic functionality. The Chair’s most vital role is ensuring the voice of every board member is heard.”

“An excellent chair injects the probing question, challenges and pushes for an answer to the uncomfortable question, and brings issues to life. They heighten the debate and the exploration of specific business issues that members are grappling with. Serge Romano is the Chair of excellence. He is indelibly personable. He is genuinely and deeply interested in those around the table and the efficient and dynamic development of their business interests. He holds his board members to account. Serge performs his role as Chair with precision and a generous dash of good humour.”
