Welcome to our Governance Made Easy webinar today titled How to Create a CEO Report that Will Inspire Your Board. We are joined today by Stephen Bowman, Simon Telfer and Julie Garland McClellan. And my name is Sean McDonald and I shall be your moderator in the background for the next forty five odd minutes.  \nFirstly, thank you for joining us today. We always appreciate the efforts you or the effort you make to be here for our live events.  \nDuring the session if you have any questions please use the Q and A button on your toolbar. It just enables us to keep a track of things as we're going along.  \nFinally, if you stay through till the end which of course we hope you will do and as is customary for our webinars now, we have a special treat for you By answering a really short one minute survey at the end of the webinar, you'll go into the draw to win one of our beautiful gift baskets worth over four hundred dollars Now for those not too familiar with Board Pro, we are a board software provider, sometimes called a board portal, we serve just over thirty two thousand users across the globe these days, across about thirty four different countries.  \nAnd we enable organizations to prepare for and run their board meetings more effectively and efficiently with clever software with less time and deliver more impact and value for the organisation.  \nAnd as much as we are a board software provider, part of our wider mission here at Board PRO is to make the fundamentals of governance free and easy to implement for all organisations, but especially those organisations with resource constraints.  \nThese webinars and the many templates and guides on our Board Pro website are a great tangible example of how we look to achieve our mission for nonprofits and small businesses around the globe.  \nSo for the next forty five odd minutes, just relax, listen and add to the discussion by asking as many questions as you would like. A full recording of the webinar along with the slide deck, the transcript, the CEO report guide, the template, all important CEO report template, and some of the other resources which we'll talk to you about towards the end will be sent to you after the webinar today.  \nSo let me have our team introduce themselves starting with Steven, you first.  \nHi everyone, Steve Bowman from Conscious Governance. I've been working with boards, been on boards or been CEO of boards for probably close to about forty five years. So I have had the  \ngreat pleasure of interacting with many very high performing boards, picking the IT out of what they found as work, and then sharing that with others, which is primarily what we're going to be doing today. Simon.  \nI'm living in Wanaka in, beautiful central Otago in Aotearoa. I I specialize in privately owned business governance, and I do that by practicing as a director and advisory board member. I also do a lot of board recruitment and board appointments. And, for those of you looking for board roles in New Zealand, you'll probably be aware of Appointmenter Boards, a community of about twenty six or twenty seven thousand people that we have curated over the last few years.  \nMore so just been reelected into local government. So I'm staying I now chair or I continue to chair a community board down here as well. So even though privately owned businesses is my specialty, I can, mix and mingle with the local government as well. Julie.  \nHi. I'm probably known to a few of you as the person who presents the Director's Dilemma newsletter, which according to the Financial Times is the most fun a director can have with their clothes on. Actually, don't mind what you're wearing when you're reading it, as long as you do.  \nI've been working with and around boards now for pretty much as long as Stephen, although I've got more hair. But the main thing I love doing is working with boards to help them make the decisions","cbCaiekU0P9f6uHw","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiekU0P9f6uHw","pdf",246156,"English","# Webinar Transcript\n## Session Overview and Goals\n## Why CEO Reports Exist\n## Board Role and Future-Focused Reporting\n## Introductions and Perspectives","[{\"question\":\"Why is a CEO report needed in the first place?\",\"answer\":\"The session frames the CEO report as a tool to support the board’s role.
