Chair & NED
Chairs and boards play a critical role in the strategic oversight, culture and purpose of organisations.
A cohesive board of talented, diverse and experienced directors is perhaps the greatest asset a chief executive and management team can have at their disposal to seize business opportunities and effectively manage risk. This is particularly true at a time of rapid business change, digital disruption, evolving business models and societal expectations.
Non-executive directors (NEDs) – also known as supervisory or independent outside directors – and chairs are a proven way of helping businesses of all sizes and ownership structures to gain access to valuable talent whose experience can add constructive insights.

Luxembourg
Over the last decade, a board’s work has become relatively complex as transparency about performance, and responsibilities have increased substantially.
Today, board mandates need to extend beyond traditional financial oversight to deal with issues such as climate change, cybersecurity and risk management. The need for strong board membership becomes an important imperative. Promoting best practices in the field of corporate governance of companies and institutions is very much a strategic topic in Luxembourg.
At Odgers Berndtson Luxembourg, we help you constitute a highly-qualified, effective and respected board, working across the country, industries and even beyond local borders, to find the talent you need.
