Who attends board meetings? Main members of the C-Suite like the CEO, founders and COO. Investors. Non-executive directors with industry knowledge and experience.

Non-‐Members at a Board Meeting: Non-‐members or ex-‐officio members of the board may participate in discussion or present reports at the discretion of the chair, but may not make motions or vote.

Who prepares the first draft? Usually the company secretary, the CEO or the board secretary. This then needs to be approved or amended by the chair. The agenda and the board papers need to be sent to all directors at least 5 days plus a weekend, prior to the board meeting.
