This week, Andrew Pownall hosted our first boardroom breakfast event in Parramatta for finance executives, alongside Sean Khan. Thank you to everyone who attended! We had an excellent discussion covering a range of topics. Here are our key takeaways: - Business remains challenging, however, the consensus around the table was that this is industry specific. This is also what I am currently experiencing. - The group felt that pressure for cost reduction will remain high across many businesses as long as interest rates remain high. - Listed businesses are facing the tough choice on delivering short term shareholder value vs investing for growth. It is challenging to activate organic demand that is sustainable in the current environment. - There is strong evidence that many SME's, particularly those that are privately held, are investing in growth. I have worked with a number of SME's in the last 12-18 months were this is the case. - Investing in technology and automation must be a priority for every business. It is very costly to get it wrong. The challenge can often be finding the most efficient and cost effective platform. - Don't thrust new technology on people. It is important to empower people as well as educate them. If you would like to join one of our upcoming boardroom events, feel free to reach out to Andrew Pownall. #FinanceExecutives #BusinessChallenges #BusinessLeadership #FinanceNetworking #MoirGroupEvents

Established enterprises, whether owner-operated, partnerships, family-owned, or boasting high growth potential, form the core market for advisory boards. The State of the Market Report reveals the most common starting point for advisory board formation is businesses around the $1.5 million revenue mark, and the average size of a business with an advisory board in place is $20 million. Businesses often ask us what the investment required is to have an advisory board. The answer? It ranges from $40-70k annually, to cover monthly chair meetings and quarterly full board gatherings. What questions do you have about the advisory board sector? Let us know below 👇 #AdvisoryBoard #BusinessGrowth #CorporateStrategy

I am seeing an uplift of enquiries around Advisory Board establishment in recent months. The Advisory Board Centre’s post highlights the key state of market. I believe the real Power and Peformance occurs when aligning the Advisory Boards members to business performance and critical outcomes, tracking ROI for your advisory board, like any other investment. #advisoryboards
