This season, every episode of OMG focuses on a question that directors really need to answer.
OMG is written, produced, narrated and scored by Matt Fullbrook.
TRANSCRIPT:
Question #27: How many of us would like our board meetings to feel more “creative”? As any casual OMG listener will already know, I spend a lot of time encouraging corporate directors and senior executives to do things that are outside of the range of normal behaviours in boardrooms. First off, I’d like to argue that the range of normal behaviours in boardrooms is way too narrow and doesn’t work very well. But second, I am compelled to admit that it can be hard to find the confidence to try things that literally nobody else has ever tried, even when everything that everyone *has* tried doesn’t work. To that end, I often get challenged by my clients and students on that exact point, usually in the form of “that all sounds fine, Matt, but how do you expect me to go into my boardroom and actually do this stuff?” My initial response often involves the subject of today’s episode. I will look around the room and say, “OK, raise your hand if, in general, you would like your board meetings to feel more creative, whatever that means to you?” Every time I’ve asked this question, more than three quarters of the people in the room raise their hand. And what I’m try: first, that we are all open to trying new things and as a result you probably won’t face as much resistance as you think. Second, just asking a show of hands question requires basically no permission, gets you immediate and valuable information, and in itself injects a bit of active and creative engagement into the flow of a meeting. Creativity doesn’t have to be difficult or complicated or transformative. But it does have to push you outside the range of normal behaviour.
