Brad Feld explains why and how the board of directors is a formal construct that essentially provides governance for the company. Their duty, in a variety of formal and informal responsibilities, is to ultimately serve the best interest of the company. The CEO should create a transparency with the board that builds the board’s faith in the CEO as the person to run the company.

I’ve been an entrepreneur for more years than I care to remember but I can still remember what it’s like to start out. It’s exciting, thrilling and terrifying all at the same time! When you’re launching a business, you’ve got enough on your plate without worrying about what silly business terms mean, so my series Speak Like Shaf will explain all those pesky and confusing phrases in detail. This week’s phrase is board of directors.
You’ve probably heard this term even if you don’t run a business but do you really know what a board of directors is and what it does? Well, in an established company, the board represents the shareholders. They are responsible for coming up with the polices to oversee and manage the corporation. Generally, they are responsible for the strategic direction of the company. Private companies, charities and non-profit organisations can all have a board.
What we are interested in today is a board in a start-up business. Sure, in the early stages, it’s unlikely that a board will need to be involved. More often than not, the founder owns the business and there really isn’t any need for managerial oversight.
If and when investors get involved, they will start to demand a seat on the board and will want a level of structure around governance.
If you are starting up, it’s worth thinking about a slightly different type of board, in the form of non-executive directors. They are a group of experts who oversee the activities of a start-up. They are directors who don’t have management responsibility but can be worth their weight in gold to a fledgling business. They have skills, knowledge, contacts and industry experience so use their strengths. They are senior people and will have a fantastic amount of experience. Remember, when you are starting out, they will be able to advise you on operations and strategies as well as being a general support to you.
You will need to make the decision about whether to go it alone or get non-executive directors involved. Let’s have a wee look at what my pal Rab The Rock Star did. He was an original Stone Age entrepreneur and regular viewers will know that he struggled with the same sort of decisions that today’s business people also grapple with. His genius Steve Jobs moment was to found a tool-making company to help the hunters in his village catch more mammoths and deer. His business grew and he had to take on three employees to meet demand. It occurred to Rab that he could have a board to help steer his company but in the end he decided against it as he wanted to remain 100 per cent in charge. In fact, the only board he really needed was a chopping one to make his tools on.
If, unlike Rab, you decide you’d like some non-executive directors, make sure they fit in with the company and you can work with them. Can they help move your company forward, are they strategic thinkers? Your non-executive directors will be able to make a positive impact and give you good advice.
So you see. There’s far more to a board of directors than you thought! Don’t miss out on next week’s Speak Like Shaf and remember to like, comment and subscribe.

This video discusses the composition and role of a corporation's board of directors. The board of directors is a group of people who are elected by the company's shareholders to oversee the company's executives and operations. The board of directors is responsible for hiring and firing the CEO, declaring dividends, and making decisions related to acquisitions.
Boards usually consists of a mix of inside directors and outside directors. Inside directors are members of the company's executive team (e.g., the CEO), a large shareholder, or a key stakeholder (e.g., the head of the employees' union). Outside directors, otherwise known as independent directors, do not have a material interest in the company (an example of an outside director would be the CEO of a different company). The board of directors usually makes decisions with a vote, and meetings are led by a chairperson (who in some cases is the company's CEO).
The board of directors will also form a number of committees, with the most common committees being the governance committee, the compensation committee, and the audit committee.—

Board of directors
A board of directors is a body of elected or appointed members who jointly oversee the activities of a company or organization. Other names include board of governors, board of managers, board of regents, board of trustees, and board of visitors. It may also be called "the executive board" and is often simply referred to as "the board".
A board's activities are determined by the powers, duties, and responsibilities delegated to it or conferred on it by an authority outside itself. These matters are typically detailed in the organization's bylaws. The bylaws commonly also specify the number of members of the board, how they are to be chosen, and when they are to meet. However, these bylaws rarely address a board's powers when faced with a corporate turnaround or restructuring, where board members need to act as agents of change in addition to their traditional fiduciary responsibilities.
In an organization with voting members, the board acts on behalf of, and is subordinate to, the organization's full group, which usually chooses the members of the board. In a stock corporation, the board is elected by the shareholders and is the highest authority in the management of the corporation. In a non-stock corporation with no general voting membership, the board is the supreme governing body of the institution; its members are sometimes chosen by the board itself.

Bill's fiancée, Debbie Farmer, employed by another record company, tries to get Bill to join her department but macho-man Bill doesn't want to work with a woman boss, even if she is sweet on him. He decides to form his own record company and thinks that, first he should find some new talent and new kind of music, so his company will have something and somebody to record. He and his buddy, Pablo, go down to Cuba, just ahead of Castro's troops, and he discovers the dance team of Sylvia Lewis and Dante De Paul (their dancing should sell a lot of records if somebody ever invents DVDs), and their music is supplied by Perez Prado and his Cha-Cha-Cha Orchestra. Now, Bill has the talent that will sell millions of records for his new company but he has no money to build a company. What's a guy to do? Nothing, if he has a fiancée who will quit her job and raise the money for him.

I’ve been an entrepreneur for more years than I care to remember but I can still remember what it’s like to start out. It’s exciting, thrilling and terrifying all at the same time! When you’re launching a business, you’ve got enough on your plate without worrying about what silly business terms mean, so my series Speak Like Shaf will explain all those pesky and confusing phrases in detail. This week’s phrase is board of directors.
You’ve probably heard this term even if you don’t run a business but do you really know what a board of directors is and what it does? Well, in an established company, the board represents the shareholders. They are responsible for coming up with the polices to oversee and manage the corporation. Generally, they are responsible for the strategic direction of the company. Private companies, charities and non-profit organisations can all have a board.
What we are interested in today is a board in a start-up business. Sure, in the early stages, it’s unlikely that a board will need to be involved. More often than not, the founder owns the business and there really isn’t any need for managerial oversight.
If and when investors get involved, they will start to demand a seat on the board and will want a level of structure around governance.
If you are starting up, it’s worth thinking about a slightly different type of board, in the form of non-executive directors. They are a group of experts who oversee the activities of a start-up. They are directors who don’t have management responsibility but can be worth their weight in gold to a fledgling business. They have skills, knowledge, contacts and industry experience so use their strengths. They are senior people and will have a fantastic amount of experience. Remember, when you are starting out, they will be able to advise you on operations and strategies as well as being a general support to you.
You will need to make the decision about whether to go it alone or get non-executive directors involved. Let’s have a wee look at what my pal Rab The Rock Star did. He was an original Stone Age entrepreneur and regular viewers will know that he struggled with the same sort of decisions that today’s business people also grapple with. His genius Steve Jobs moment was to found a tool-making company to help the hunters in his village catch more mammoths and deer. His business grew and he had to take on three employees to meet demand. It occurred to Rab that he could have a board to help steer his company but in the end he decided against it as he wanted to remain 100 per cent in charge. In fact, the only board he really needed was a chopping one to make his tools on.
If, unlike Rab, you decide you’d like some non-executive directors, make sure they fit in with the company and you can work with them. Can they help move your company forward, are they strategic thinkers? Your non-executive directors will be able to make a positive impact and give you good advice.
So you see. There’s far more to a board of directors than you thought! Don’t miss out on next week’s Speak Like Shaf and remember to like, comment and subscribe.

This video discusses the composition and role of a corporation's board of directors. The board of directors is a group of people who are elected by the company's shareholders to oversee the company's executives and operations. The board of directors is responsible for hiring and firing the CEO, declaring dividends, and making decisions related to acquisitions.
Boards usually consists of a mix of inside directors and outside directors. Inside directors are members of the company's executive team (e.g., the CEO), a large shareholder, or a key stakeholder (e.g., the head of the employees' union). Outside directors, otherwise known as independent directors, do not have a material interest in the company (an example of an outside director would be the CEO of a different company). The board of directors usually makes decisions with a vote, and meetings are led by a chairperson (who in some cases is the company's CEO).
The board of directors will also form a number of committees, with the most common committees being the governance committee, the compensation committee, and the audit committee.—

Brad Feld explains why and how the board of directors is a formal construct that essentially provides governance for the company. Their duty, in a variety of formal and informal responsibilities, is to ultimately serve the best interest of the company. The CEO should create a transparency with the board that builds the board’s faith in the CEO as the person to run the company.

This video explains what the Board of Directors or the Board is. Put simply, the Board is a group of people who jointly oversee the activities of a company.
Board of directors
A board of directors is a body of elected or appointed members who jointly oversee the activities of a company or organization. Other names include board of governors, board of managers, board of regents, board of trustees, and board of visitors. It may also be called "the executive board" and is often simply referred to as "the board".
A board's activities are determined by the powers, duties, and responsibilities delegated to it or conferred on it by an authority outside itself. These matters are typically detailed in the organization's bylaws. The bylaws commonly also specify the number of members of the board, how they are to be chosen, and when they are to meet. However, these bylaws rarely address a board's powers when faced with a corporate turnaround or restructuring, where board members need to act as agents of change in addition to their traditional fiduciary responsibilities.
In an organization with voting members, the board acts on behalf of, and is subordinate to, the organization's full group, which usually chooses the members of the board. In a stock corporation, the board is elected by the shareholders and is the highest authority in the management of the corporation. In a non-stock corporation with no general voting membership, the board is the supreme governing body of the institution; its members are sometimes chosen by the board itself.
