The Sirdar Elite Climbers Club opened my eyes to another dimension of business in term of governance and the importance of accountability when running your business day to day. My only frustration is that I cannot implement the changes fast enough.

The Sirdar Business Summit delivers very practical information in a clear and structured way. It certainly gives a perspective shift on one’s day-to-day business activities and challenges one to create an enterprise that rises to new levels and achieves sustainability, greatness and change in people’s lives – a fair challenge indeed!

The Sirdar Elite Climbers Club was an eye opener for me and it made me do all the things I should have done from the start. Today my business is successful and the guidance I received was really valuable in taking the business from where it was to where it is today.

Sirdar’s approach to board education and director development

Our training of high-performance boards and director development is practical and application focused. The High-Performance Boards workshop is the first step on the journey of understanding what it means to have a board of directors that drives performance for a company. It is also the first step for individuals looking to develop their understanding of what it means to be a director of a privately-held or family business.

The Advanced Directors Programme is Sirdar’s approach to developing the fundamental skills of directors in a practical and applicable way. In order to be able to provide the support to high-performance boards around the world, we must invest in our ability to be highly effective and value adding directors.

It takes emotional intelligence and a high degree of honest reflection to accept that there is always something more to learn, and then commit to that learning with humility.
