These experiences will include:

The Digital Transformation of your Board in a Hybrid World: Optional or Mandatory?
Paul Stark
Paul Stark
OnBoard
Director

For many organisations, the end of the year is the time to review and assess the year's activities and performances. This is often when leadership team members prepare and share all the relevant reports to be reviewed and discussed by their board, it is also when the following year's priorities are set. This process can be laborious, time consuming and lose its efficiency, especially in a hybrid working environment.

How can technology support organisations and their board in this pressured time?

Bringing the latest technology to your board and leadership team will make them more efficient, reduce meeting preparation time and create an appropriate digital boardroom experience that optimises remote, in-person and hybrid meetings.

In this session, Paul Stark, Director at OnBoard will share some case studies, best practices and benefits of a digital boardroom in a hybrid world.

  • Centralise all board work in one single source of truth
  • Reinforce governance good practices
  • Remove silos and improve communication channels

Getting to know your member better using technology to improve member engagement

Knowing our Scheme members isn’t always the same as understanding them. We might know something about their ages and where they live, but what do we really understand about them beyond those few data points?

A good question to ask ourselves is whether we can describe members as people. What are they trying to achieve and what gets in their way? How confident are they with money? What’s important to them outside of the world of pensions?

It’s increasingly important that we get this right, and work towards the goal of leaving no one behind. It’s time to start using data with empathy and imagination to find out who our members are, so that we can communicate with them on their terms, not ours.
