Non-Executive Directors

  • As many surveys show, companies that spend time on strategic planning, have a better chance of maximising growth and profits. 80% of those that plan outperform all those that do not.
  • Having a good plan is only the first step – implementation is equally important - it is not easy but using our Non-Executive Director experience, can go a long way to helping.

Why should a company appoint a Non-Executive Director?

  • Companies that have a created a strategic plan with JFP will want to monitor progress through regular, effective, monthly Board Meetings. This is a business discipline that is essential to implementing agreed actions. With a Non-Executive Director, management has a better chance of concentrating on the company’s priorities and the likelihood of deadlines slipping becomes less. They bring a experience, energy and dynamism.
