Shownotes
In this solo episode of Take on Board, I share my keynote from the 2026 The Observership Program launch. I discuss how the program helps emerging leaders under 40 and builds strong board succession pipelines.
I highlight that diverse boards make better decisions, but only when inclusion and psychological safety are prioritised through intentional connections.
My five tips for observers:
- Connect broadly
- Stay curious
- Own your seat
- Use your fresh perspective early
- Fully commit to meetings, training, and events (and have fun).
