In the last of our series we Matt we talk about one of the most important people in the boardroom...the Chair. You've probably heard the analogy about the board chair being like an orchestra conductor. Matt Fullbrook of Fullbrook Board Effective thinks that's bunkum. He has a different analogy - and it's to do with dinner parties. FDI's Paul riffs with Matt on making board leadership better. We workshop: Is leadership evolving? The conventional understanding of a board chair Introducing a new analogy - board chairs as great dinner hosts The role of the board in co-creating the right atmos for decision-making How to chair better in a virtual environment Should we have 2 chairs? 1 for the mechanical stuff, another for the generative stuff?

“How does this impact us?” is a question you'll often hear in boardrooms. But less so, “Who is the us?” and “Isn't the us also the environment and the community?” or “Should we think about what we can have a positive impact on, versus just thinking about what we'll be negatively impacted by?”. Powerful questions, all discussed by FDI's Paul and governance guru Matt Fullbrook of Fullbrook Board Effectiveness, in this podcast about how ‘left-of-field' issues might not be that ‘left' after all. We spitball: Reasons to think outside your board's direct impact zone Why it's impossible to benefit everyone, but important to consider everyone Stakeholder representation in the boardroom and conflicts of interest in being a representative for other voices on the board How to bake stakeholder thinking into your board's practices Connect with Matt FullbrookLinkedinTwitter Board Effectiveness Connect with Future Directors InstituteFuture Directors Insititute Paul Smith on LinkedIn Follow Future Directors on LinkedIn
Spotify's big drawcard Joe Rogan said some stuff. Stupid stuff. And Spotify got heat because Joe's values butted against their publicly stated ones. So what's a board to do? Today, FDI's Paul yacks with good friend Matt Fullbrook of Fullbrook Board Effectiveness, about what things a board could do better in a crisis. We cover: How a Future Director should respond to an ethical dilemma Why knee-jerk reactions are wrong and current crisis meetings are broken Are day-to-day crises even in the board's purview?

Downing Street's new Chief of Staff, Mark Fullbrook, is not a stranger to politics. He's been the "backroom boy" behind many political campaigns around the world, including Boris Johnson's successful Mayor of London campaigns and President George Bush's unsuccessful re-election bid in 1992. But, until now, Mark Fullbrook has kept his names out of the headlines. That changed when it was reported that Fullbrook had been questioned as a witness in an FBI inquiry into alleged electoral bribery in Puerto Rico. Then, this week, he became headline news when it was revealed his Downing Street salary was being paid through his own lobbying firm. The publicity comes at a bad time for Prime Minister Liz Truss who is facing economic turmoil following the Chancellor's mini-budget. So, who is Mark Fullbrook and why do we know so little about him? Mark Coles looks at the life of an influential, yet unheard-of, political figure.

A weird cultural thing's emerged through the history and formality of boardrooms, which has made it a space that makes directors lonely. Vulnerability is seen as a weakness because comradery is weak. Today, FDI's Paul chats with Matt Fullbrook of Fullbrook Board Effectiveness - on how what boards and directors can do to click. Obnoxious wisdom awaits. We discuss: Why boards breed loneliness, and whether this is just a human problem How boards can make people comfortable by switching up rigid ways of doing things What individual board directors can do to feel less lonely The power of being consciously obnoxious Connect with Matt FullbrookLinkedinTwitter Board Effectiveness Connect with Future Directors InstituteFuture Directors Insititute Paul Smith on LinkedIn Follow Future Directors on LinkedIn If you enjoyed this, we'd love to know.

*TW – Conversations of Suicide* Today, I'm joined by Luke Fullbrook, an international strongman competitor based in Stoke, currently working as a personal trainer, who now consistently promotes the vitality of maintaining a healthy mindset as a complement to physical health and strength. Luke's training was initially derived by his abusive home life and experiences of bulling he endured at school… wanting to make himself bigger, more intimidating… thus utilised as a coping mechanism to the accumulation of stressors.Fortunately, improving his training performance, witnessing progression within lifts and developing his overall strength provided a sense of accomplishment, achievement and confidence – and thus a sense of purpose.Luke discusses the lifestyle of a strongman competitor. The dedication, routine, training. The positive & motivating relationship he's built, the sense of community…. but also the pressure of the high-expectation competitions, the constant anxiety of falling victim to significant injuries and debilitating performance comparison – which consequently enforces competitors to habitually diminish their achievements. The tendencies of bigorexia, unconventional relationships with food, and the shocking badges of honour within that culture – ranging from sleep apnoea, daily caloric intakes to exceptionally high blood pressure. Throughout the episode, we focus on the perception of discomfort equating to growth… how Luke values the trauma, the discomfort, the immeasurable personal challenges faced as they have only equipped him with transferable skills, tools, resilience, and a whole new perspective to life… through embarking on an enlightening journey which subsequently has allowed him to find happiness and peace.
A rare blend of eloquent lyrical craft and explorative musicianship, the songs of Tiny Ruins have been treasured by crowds and critics for over a decade. Via an eclectic raft of influences, the musical world of Hollie Fullbrook and band spans delicate folk, lustrous dream pop and ebullient psychedelia. Born in Bristol and raised in West Auckland, songwriter & multi-instrumentalist Fullbrook's debut LP Some Were Meant For Sea (2011) features her alone, and was quickly celebrated by radio playlists and blogs worldwide. The album’s clutch of “gorgeous vignettes” (BBC) put the artist on the map, and she took to the road from her home in New Zealand to tour extensively through the UK, Europe and North America – often accompanied by her friend Cass Basil on bass. Following the tape-recorded EP Haunts (2013), produced by Jon Pearce (The Beths), and with the addition of drummer Alex Freer, the then-trio began work on second album Brightly Painted One with producer Tom Healy, who later joined the band on electric guitar. Brightly Painted One (2014) was championed by the New York Times, NPR and David Lynch, & won Best Alternative Album at the New Zealand Music Awards - “…an album of quiet, devastating beauty,” wrote Pop Matters. “...an album that both bruises the heart and lifts the soul...songwriting that demonstrates a novelist’s eye for detail.”— Uncut review of 'Brightly Painted One' In between touring, Fullbrook became a sought after collaborator. A New York recording session culminated in the EP Hurtling Through (2015) with indie-rock legend Hamish Kilgour (The Clean), while single Dream Wave (2016) was recorded and produced by award-winning cult filmmaker and musician David Lynch - “A tranquil, pared-back track [with] a gradually rising sense of the macabre… very special indeed.”— The Line of Best Fit Building on the sparse minimalism and intricate songwriting of earlier releases, the band’s third album Olympic Girls comprises a taut and agile quiver of songs, dancing with explorative instrumentation and a pop sensibility that springs with life. “How much would you be willing to give?” Fullbrook asks point-blank in first single ‘How Much’, ahead of woozily discordant strings and a stomping neo-psychedelic rhythm. The lyric brims with imagery of supermarket breakdowns, lilos, snarks and silos while an anthemic guitar hook soars throughout. Not content to leave the song at a stable conclusion, a thumping ‘I am the Walrus’-esque bass outro propels the track boomerang-style back to a space of adroit experimentation. “I've heard Olympic Girls, and I had to pick my jaw up off the floor”, wrote https://www.stuff.co.nz/auckland/108148664/Tiny-Ruins-Hollie-Fullbrooks-new-album-jaw-dropping (Grant Smithies). “Clustered around more introspective passages typical of confessional singer-songwriters are gnarlier phrases that give her work its buzzy voltage: arresting visual images, weird associations, daisy-chains of telling detail.” See https://www.tinyruins.com/shows (Tour Dates.) MOJO Review of Olympic Girls - ★★★★ UNCUT Review of Olympic Girls - 8/10 "Part of the charm of Olympic Girls lies in the layers of mystery in each song. Inspired by literature, science, nature and human experience, these mysteries lie waiting to be carefully unfolded…” God Is In the TV - 9/10 "An album confident in its vulnerability and luxuriating in a bigger sound." Loud & Quiet Review of Olympic Girls - 8/10 "… songs that change sound and mood during their duration, never meandering and always captivating.” BUST Review of Olympic Girls - 5/5 “… a deeper listen to these eleven tracks exposes a breadth of influences that spans decades.” - The Wire Review of Olympic Girls “She is always looking uneasily toward the next line, or moving toward mysticism. In sentimental contexts, she generates lines of wicked ambition.”— The New York Times “Fullbrook’s hushed yet forceful songs, packed with obsessives and...

Having started his career as a Math and Physical Education teacher in a remote Australian school, he then worked at a range of schools across the country before serving in leadership positions in the Middle East, China and Australia. Having participated in the Think Tank on Global Education at the Harvard Graduate School of Education in 2016, Kevin then went on to be named one of 'The Educator' magazines Rising Stars of Education under 40 years old. Kevin talks about how the stakeholders connect to make a great school experience, why everyday learning is enjoyable and how we have a common ground to cover: children's love. It is most important to set aside all distractions and focus on the moment when we are with children, for the best learning experience. Schools can be similar and yet poles apart, even in the same neighbourhood. Every school is unique and different. End of the day, it is simply the teachers' love for the profession that helps spread the joy of learning. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/learningforward/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/learningforward/support

When people join a board, they don't always get opportunity to understand what exactly the job entails—and what a board is really for, says Matt Fullbrook in this show.Manager of the David and Sharon Johnston Centre for Corporate Governance Innovation at the University of Toronto and a board effectiveness researcher and consultant for Fullbrook Board Effectiveness, Fullbrook says providing an opportunity for better understanding of those two things is at the root of board education.Fullbook explains that board education also goes a step further to answer the question, “How do we take that role as a director and turn it into something that has the potential to create something of tremendous value for the organization?”It’s very difficult for anyone to create good answers to these key questions themselves, says Fullbrook, who will serve as academic director for the new High Performing Board Digital Series from CUES that starts April 13. “The reality” of director education, he explains, “is it gives directors an opportunity on the one hand to be ... with other people who are going through something like what they’re going through, so you feel like you’re not alone. But second of all, you get to learn from their successes and mistakes.“But also, you get access to people, educators and so on who have been thinking about this and have created and explored solutions that you may never have thought about."Director education “gives you a whole new toolkit to bring back to your board and ask, ‘How are we going to implement this in a way that is going to empower our credit union to be better for its members on an ongoing basis?’” he says.“It opens up a whole universe of new tools and insights and opportunities for your board to do things in new and better ways.” Fullbrook emphasizes the importance of applying director education. “The potential value of education ... is really undermined if you don’t go back ... and make an effort to ensure that it has an impact. That takes discipline.”Putting board education into practice can’t just be a book report, where the director who attended the education says “I learned a, b, c and d.” Instead, Fullbrook suggests, the director should say something more like, “I’d like to have a conversation about how we can take what I learned and use it to make our board better. Here are my ideas.” The show also gets into:Why Fullbrook rejects the term “best practice” for governanceFullbrook’s short definition of what governance isWhy board education must be ongoingThe value of being curious about how you might improve on your current board practicesDetails about the High Performing Board Digital Series that starts April 13Fullbrook’s new podcast, One Minute GovernanceLinks for this show:Fullbrook Board EffectivenessDavid and Sharon Johnston Centre for Corporate Governance InnovationHigh Performing Board Digital SeriesMatt Fulbrook in the CUES Podcast episodes 24 and 85Most recent Matt Fullbrook video for Unlimited+ members: Provocative Considerations for Boar

Welcome to the follow up of Episode 33 with Matt Fullbrook, board advisor and experienced governance consultant. In this Green Room episode, Paul and Matt continue their discussion on redefining board governance and decision making. They talk about: What 20 years of governance experience gets you, and what got Matt involved in the first place Why everything we do matters in some way to someone, and boards would do well to realise this The importance of separating ‘soft skills’ from the nuts and bolts of governance, and why they both involve different types of attention The number one trait of effective board directors Why boards used to be seen as ethereal, untouchable groups of people – but the rise in required transparency has revealed the people underneath are just like us Connect with Matt: LinkedIn Board Effectiveness David and Sharon Johnston Centre for Corporate Governance Innovation Connect with Paul: LinkedIn Future Directors Join Future Directors Group on LinkedIn If you enjoyed the show, we'd love to know!

Joining us this week on Boardroom Hustle is Matt Fullbrook, a governance consultant and board effectiveness researcher. Matt helps boards maximise their effectiveness by developing and implementing high quality governance processes, policies and structures. With 20 years experience in the study of corporate governance and board advisory, Matt is undeniably knowledgeable. You may remember Matt from our recent Decision84 event (June 2020), where he participated in the Day 4 roundtable discussions around the question: how should boards influence the world? This episode is equally insightful, with Matt and Paul discussing things like: Is there a better way to define board governance? Why we shouldn’t consider boards ‘one size fits all’ The pitfalls of a boardroom routine, and why we shouldn’t do something just because it’s the way we’ve always done it The major benefits of a racially diverse boardroom Why, even if you’re an intelligent board member, you might not make a good chairperson Is the current 200-year-old board model still valid? What’s the alternative? How does a board choose who to recruit? What should they consider during recruitment? Why we should aim to have high EQ The importance of being willing to change our minds as we learn new information Should boards have their own purpose statement to use as a guide in decision making?

Credit union boards are becoming more interested in whether their composition mirrors that of their memberships. And their memberships are becoming more diverse with time. So, it’s not surprising that more than half of the respondents to the survey for the new State of Credit Union Governance 2020 report said they’re looking for demographic diversity. This and many other governance topics are discussed in this most recent episode of the CUES Podcast.“This signals a bit of a shift,” says Michael Daigneault, CCD, founder and president of CUES strategic provider for governance Quantum Governance, Herndon, Virginia, and a co-author of the study. “Traditionally, we’d often hear financial literacy, ability to understand the financials …. Of course, some kind of specific operational expertise and financial expertise or professional services expertise can be quite handy. But this year we heard something that we think is very important ... the No. 1 response from folks all across the country was that they were looking for demographic diversity. Fifty-three percent of folks said when they’re looking for board members that’s what they’re looking for. And 51% said that they’re looking for the ability to focus on the future.”“Both of these were higher than financial literacy and the various different types of specific operational or professional services expertise that people traditionally look for,” adds Daigneault, who will present at the 2020 Execu/Summit, March 8-13, Park City, Utah, and at the 2020 Director Development Seminar, July 15-17, Montreal, QC. Report co-author Matt Fullbrook, manager of the David & Sharon Johnston Centre for Corporate Governance Innovation at the University of Toronto’s Rotman School of Management underscored this idea that boards are now looking for a new set of skills in their new directors.“When we look at, on the one hand, the question of ‘What are credit union boards focusing on when recruiting,’ we often find … ‘resume skills,’” says Fullbrook, a faculty member at CUES Governance Leadership Institute™, June 7-10, Toronto, and lead presenter for Board Chair Development Seminar, July 13-14, Montreal, QC. By “resume skills,” Fullbrook means hard, measurable abilities. “But when we compare those to what actually make a director useful or valuable once they step in the board room, the skills look a little bit different. “In fact, we see a much stronger focus on soft skills or interpersonal skills,” he explains. “So, what floated to the top was, in fact, an ability to focus on the future. Following that was independent-mindedness that we defined as ‘not being afraid to go against the crowd, a lack of groupthink.’ “Behind that, we have financial literacy and a strong understanding of the membership, both of which, of course, are not surprising to anyone who would sit in a credit union board room,” he notes. “Following that we have consensus-building.“So, it’s a really strong emphasis when we’re asking about what makes directors effective. The emphasis is on soft interpersonal skills and the ability to help lead your team toward effective decision-making.”The show also gets into:Elements of renewal your board may be getting wrongThe role of the chair and the spectrum of training chairs undertakeConfidence the CEO and the board have in the board’s work

Board governance and effectiveness lies at the heart of charities. We love our boards, but working with them can be very challenging. Matt Fullbrook from the Clarkson Centre for Board Governance walks us through some easy but impactful steps to take to re-focus your board and repair or optimize your relationship with your board members. Whether your board is highly functional or the cause of your grey hairs, Matt has tips and tools to get the most out of your board and make sure they are getting the most out of volunteering for your organization.
Prestigious. Powerful. Privileged. This is Fullbrook Academy, an elite prep school where history looms in the leafy branches over its brick walkways. But some traditions upheld in its hallowed halls are profoundly dangerous. Jules Devereux just wants to keep her head down, avoid distractions, and get into the right college, so she can leave Fullbrook and its old-boy social codes behind. She wants freedom, but ex-boyfriends and ex-best friends are determined to keep her in place. Jamie Baxter feels like an imposter at Fullbrook, but the hockey scholarship that got him in has given him a chance to escape his past and fulfill the dreams of his parents and coaches, whose mantra rings in his ears: Don’t disappoint us.
Join us as we discuss the roles and responsibilities of credit union boards today, compensation for the board and the risks and benefits they face. Fullbrook is the manager of the Clarkson Centre for Board Effectiveness at the Joseph L. Rotman School of Management, University of Toronto and faculty member at CUES Governance Leadership Institute™.
Matt Fullbrook is the Manager of the Clarkson Centre for Board Effectiveness (CCBE) at the Rotman School of Management, University of Toronto. Under his direction, the CCBE has evolved into the central hub of governance research in Canada.
The question of how “ordinary Germans” managed to commit genocide is a classic (and troubling) one in modern historiography. It's been well studied and so it's hard to say anything new about it. But Mary Fulbrook has done precisely that in A Small Town Near Auschwitz: Ordinary Nazis and the Holocaust (Oxford University Press, 2012). In the book she examines the career of a single Nazi administrator in “the East”, Udo Klusa, in minute detail day by day, week by week, month by month while the Germans were improvising what became known as the “Holocaust.” Klausa was not a big wig; he was a functionary, a part of a (particularly awful) colonial machine. He believed in the Nazi mission to “Germanize” Poland, but he was by no means a “fanatical” Nazi. He followed orders (by our standards horrendous ones), but he did not do so mindlessly. He wanted to build a career, but he was not–apparently–willing to do anything to do so. Fullbrook investigates just how far Klausa was willing to go, what he found acceptable and what he found (or seemed to find) objectionable. It's a tricky subject because Klausa himself tried to cover his tracks after the war. He seems to have seen that policies he once found quite sensible were, after the war, not so. Fullbrook does a masterful job of using archival sources to show where Klausa's memory becomes particularly selective. Though it would be too much to call Fullbrook's portrait of Klausa “sympathetic,” it is certainly both historically and psychologically nuanced and therefore helps us understand his mentality both during the war and after.

In the book she examines the career of a single Nazi administrator in “the East”, Udo Klusa, in minute detail day by day, week by week, month by month while the Germans were improvising what became known as the “Holocaust.” Klausa was not a big wig; he was a functionary, a part of a (particularly awful) colonial machine. He believed in the Nazi mission to “Germanize” Poland, but he was by no means a “fanatical” Nazi. He followed orders (by our standards horrendous ones), but he did not do so mindlessly. He wanted to build a career, but he was not–apparently–willing to do anything to do so. Fullbrook investigates just how far Klausa was willing to go, what he found acceptable and what he found (or seemed to find) objectionable. It's a tricky subject because Klausa himself tried to cover his tracks after the war. He seems to have seen that policies he once found quite sensible were, after the war, not so. Fullbrook does a masterful job of using archival sources to show where Klausa's memory becomes particularly selective. Though it would be too much to call Fullbrook's portrait of Klausa “sympathetic,” it is certainly both historically and psychologically nuanced and therefore helps us understand his mentality both during the war and after.
