In this, our fifth and final episode before we break for the holidays, I’m joined by Dan Kalms, an experienced Finance Leader, currently Financial Controller at Sullivan and Stanley, the award-winning specialist change consultancy.

In this broad ranging conversation, Dan and I cover all that you need to know about good Corporate Governance in small and growing businesses.

🌟 Some of my favourite parts were:

✅ The benefits of a limited company structure;
✅ How your company structure impacts and affects your access to finance;
✅The challenge, importance and impact on behaviour of setting strong KPIs;
✅The roles, duties and benefits of having strong and diverse Board of Directors;
✅ The importance of Non Exec Directors and particularly of the diversity of that group.
