Company Secretary
The Role of the Company Secretary
In particular, the Company Secretary provides support to the following areas: 
- Independent Directors
- Board Evaluations
- Influencing and maintaining Board behaviour to a suitable standard
- Ensuring proper process is followed with the Board and Committees
- Board Committee support
- Producing Agendas and Board Packs
- Providing Minutes of meeting discussions and action points
- Supporting the Chairman with Director selection
Utilised to the fullest of their abilities and skills the Company Secretary is key to every Board. In the 2009 FRC report it stated that ‘the quality of corporate governance ultimately depends on behaviour not process’. For some Company Secretaries the skills for their role are many, but the more subtle skills of influencing the Board behaviour need to be finessed.
