West End Briefing: The lifecycle of a mining board
Directors on Boards of mining and oil and gas exploration companies bring extensive experience and knowledge from their executive careers. But as companies transition through different stages of growth, Boards must have complementary skills around the table during the full lifecycle.
The insight from Directors with engineering and project delivery experience is valuable mid-cycle, but once delivered, can they guide the CEO through production and marketing challenges? Are the original deal makers and funding gurus relevant once the company has a project and is moving from an explorer to a producer?
How can succession planning of Boards ensure that there are the best people around the table at the right point of the lifecycle to achieve the best outcomes?
A highly experienced panel of Directors from the resources industry will discuss this particular unique challenge to the Boards of mining and oil and gas exploration companies.
