"Governing at pace" with Kevin Jenkins CMInstD

In this episode Steven talks with Kevin Jenkins, founder of MartinJenkins, a professional services firm advising businesses, the public sector, international organisations, and NGOs on organisational performance, public policy, finance and economic, and how best to use data. Kevin is also a contributor to the NZ Herald newspaper and other channels, and writes on a range of governance issues for the Institute of Directors in New Zealand. Kevin asks if the Four Pillars of Governance Best Practice can be applied successfully when working at the speed of a start-up company? His answer touches on the importance of time for contemplation, an understanding of company purpose and a willingness to find efficient ways to govern. He also looks at the evolution of board reports – shorter, with better dashboards and future-focussed, and explores the rise of Decentralised Autonomous Organisations (DAOs) and how these might affect decisions made by boards in the future.   Kevin Jenkins is a Chartered Member of the Institute of Directors  See Kevin’s article on DAOs here: iod.org.nz/news/articles/australia-to-legalise-daos/  Connect with Kevin: linkedin.com/in/kevinjenkinsnz/ Find out more about the Advanced Directors Course: https://www.iod.org.nz/governance-courses/advanced-directors-course-2/ Find out more about the Institute of Directors: https://www.iod.org.nz/  Hosted on Acast.
