Description
Summary:Institute of Directors (IoD) Networks promote corporate governance at the regional level through enhanced training and skill development for directors. Although the number of IoD Networks has increased over the last several years, many regions have only just begun to collaborate and address the common challenge of developing a sustainable network. In preparing this report, the authors began by looking for similarities among successful networks, including by speaking with several network members and International Finance Corporation (IFC) representatives across the globe. Throughout this process, the authors analyzed the benefits and key takeaways from networks in Latin America, Africa, North America, and Europe to leverage synergies to develop effective and sustainable networks.
