Board Support Meetings (BSM)

Strategium offers new clients an interesting opportunity to subscribe to a monthly BSM. The purpose of BSM is to keep the right course towards your goal and to avoid ending up in a recovery process.

It is a one-day-per-month session, including personal meetings with the CEO, discussions and workouts whereby the topics of the past month will be evaluated and those of the coming months are planned such as;

General items:

• vision versus goals
• objectives versus strategies
• politics, compliance affairs
• stakeholders interests
• world economy, competitors market
• decisions taken versus executing
  
  

Operational items:

• operational departments/daughter companies
• company control/growth in production, sales, manpower, quality
• communicating, intern and extern, (press, community, branch, nation) 
• ICT Data Governance
• problems solving
• finance / cash flow
• management

 

Specific items:

• strategic risks versus business strategy, reputation / brand risk
• sustainability, ecological decisions
• urgent items/decisions required
• process/activity plans

 

In fact a BSM is a sit-back, think & talk, brainstorming session.

We start with reviewing your business plans and budgets versus reality; if not available we develop it. Analyzing growth trends and -factors, featuring earning rates and profitability. From here organizational improvements can be found (see Business Negotiators/How) like growth strategies, implementations.

The most important part of BSM is "We take care". We assist in negotiations with persons, partners, clients, relations, governments and in executing decisions taken. Does this gives you a good feeling? 

Besides theoretical items like ROI, P&L, Margins there are a few even so important items to invest in as Energy, Happiness, Enthusiasm, Fun, Relationship, Family, Healthiness a.s.o. It is so important to set the right business climate, in which management and employees feel inspired to be able to further develop themselves and to contribute with enthusiasm to the growth of the company.

In case of disturbances within the company it is important to identify differences between human aspects (such as behavior, thinking, communication, willfulness, personal goals) in order to get all noses in one direction.

This concrete BMS approach leads to continuity, creative ideas and effective solutions.

 

The advantage of such a structured company assessment is to let the board think and handle all these items in general. When you don’t, you forget, if you forget often you stumble, mostly you fall hard. The director also is responsible for tasks he did not perform. Internally clients have their own management meetings weekly.
