Notes for Development:

  1. Address the issue ASAP with the Board.

  2. Think of developing a more holistic Board role; Board composition can be useful to look at as well. The leadership may also think deeper in terms of better (in a more result- oriented way) engaging with the Board.

  3. Consider a discussion with the Board for bringing in reforms in Board responsibilities; Board may create sub-committees and bring in new skills and leadership within itself.
