Company Director Role & Responsibilities

Professional Directors Association Authorised Courses. These courses are authorised and audited by the Professional Directors Association.

The Companies Act 2006 deems all Board Directors to share equally in the legal responsibilities of running a company.

It does not differentiate between Executive and Non-Executive Directors. This means that the legal duties and potential liabilities of Non-Executive Directors are exactly the same as those of the Executive Directors. The Companies Act 2006 requires all Board Directors to understand their own accounts and holds the Directors collectively responsible for the validity of the annual financial accounts submitted to Companies House.

This Director Roles and Responsibilities Course will provide that knowledge and through case studies and discussions ensure that you are comfortable with its practical application.

This is a very practical course with extensive discussions around case studies that highlight common Boardroom dilemmas.

There are many laws and regulations that apply to Board Directors. The Companies Act 2006 places many legal requirements upon companies and their Board Directors, some of which are grouped together as The Seven Statutory Duties of Directors:

• To act within their powers
• To promote the success of the company
• To exercise independent judgement
• To exercise reasonable care, skill and diligence
• To avoid conflicts of interest
• Not to accept benefits from third parties
• To declare any interest in a proposed transaction or arrangement

There are many other requirements of the Companies Act 2006 and there are other laws relevant to Board Directors. The legal compliance issues for directors seem to be being constantly increased.
