2017 UK Neds A4 Redone CO2.Indd
The Class of 2016 New NEDs in the FTSE 350 2 FOREWORD At the time I took on my first non-executive role on a FTSE 350 Board, Tony Blair was Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, Steve Jobs had not yet launched the iPhone, and most of us were blissfully unaware of terms such as sub-prime lending, securitisation and credit default swaps. It is hard to believe that the year was 2006, barely over a decade ago. Bob Dylan told us that “times are a-changing” in 1964. But times are certainly changing faster now. From a corporate perspective, it is this speed of evolution – driven by economic, societal, political or technological developments – that keeps management teams and Boards up at night. However, more often than not, what appear as sudden, unexpected changes are but an aggregate of gradual, incremental steps. It is when we do not spot the early “movements” and premonitory signs of change that we find ourselves dangerously exposed to something that, in hindsight, should have been visible to those who had paid attention. As a Chief Executive and a Non-Executive Director I have always looked for those tools that could give me the “upper-hand” in dealing with the unknown and the unexpected. It is for this reason that I welcome The Class of report series published yearly by Korn Ferry. By analysing the small incremental changes occurring from one year to the next in the skills and backgrounds of each new generation of FTSE 350 Directors, and interpreting them in the context of the underlying trends of the past ten years, the Class of provides insight into how our Boards are evolving and, therefore, where companies and – by extension – societies are heading.
