‘Navigating a new era for the non-executive director’ is now available to download. The report is based on the insights of 200 UK board members surveyed in May this year. BDO undertook this research in partnership with executive search firm Norman Broadbent to explore the realities of the NED role today.
Key research findings.
- The most valued NEDs are strategic thinkers with strong industry expertise
- 25% say they need more NEDs, but 98% say their board struggles to attract the right talent
- 53% say remuneration is not keeping pace with the demands of the role, with small and listed company NEDs in particular feeling that the risk/reward ratio is out of kilter
- A change of government policy is not considered a significant opportunity for UK business
- ESG, AI and Cyber may be hot topics, but they’re not priorities in the boardroom… top of the charts are Talent and the Economy.
