Next-Level
Governance
Enhancing the Capabilities of Directors & Boards
Meeting the Challenges of This Decade and Beyond
We explore how boards can exercise leadership in times of change by adopting a systems view and a regenerative perspective – contributing to the factors that support thriving.
Topics include: systemic foresight, the web of stakeholder relationships, optimal conditions for innovation, long-term multi-capitals management, and how to integrate these considerations into regular board work for wiser decision-making.
With Systems Lenses we shift from . . .
Limited Views
Short-term siloed thinking
Risk-averse directors dampening adaptive creativity
Limited dialogue within business-as-usual routines
Inadequate linear thinking in complex situations
Political maneuvering
To the Bigger Picture
Sustainability viewed in context
Focus on organizational potential and re-invigoration
Greater ability to discuss critical issues
Aware of ripple effects and so better decision-making
Purposeful governance
Board members and senior teams often find themselves trapped by invisible barriers: past decisions, complex relationships, and limited resources.
Breakthroughs happen when people take care of what really matters in safe and supported ways, and there is authentic communication.
Creating the Conditions
When people and organizations do meaningful work together in a learning environment, their genius and synergy can create strategic breakthroughs. Next-level boards and senior leaders know this. They establish the right conditions in policy and leadership for a culture in which people can:
- Identify previously overlooked opportunities
- Reframe challenges in more constructive ways
- Develop a more holistic understanding of their organization’s ecosystem
- Explore innovative approaches to longstanding issues
Move Forward with Next-Level Governance
Let’s advance to discuss the perspectives and patterns that help directors and senior leaders anticipate what’s coming and know what adaptive responses may be necessary. We cover the board’s role through change and in the wider system. This conversation, when conducted thoughtfully and safely, can unfreeze perspectives and offer new possibilities.

TAG’s Ultimate Goal
The Accountability Group is dedicated to supporting boards and senior leaders in navigating increasingly complex environments with intention, skill, and foresight. There is leadership work that only boards can do in our current structures.
These sessions are the result of our research into practical thinking frameworks suitable for boards responding to 21st-century issues and complexity. We believe governance is the most impactful leadership development capability for current times, re-inspiring organizations with purpose and laying foundations for
lasting legacies.
