Completion of the programme was influential in securing my role as the Director of Football at Queens Park Rangers Football Club and has helped me to contribute effectively in the boardroom.

Board members often find themselves ambushed by two scary forces.  On one side stand the onerous legal and regulatory responsibilities placed on a company director. On the other is the need to understand the complex business of the company. Not being destroyed by either or both of these, is a major challenge.

Fortunately, like the Cavalry, Karl and ”The Effective Board Member” have charged to the directors’ defence.”

I have never, in all the training he has conducted for PwC clients across the Middle East over the last three years, heard him be asked a question for which he has not had an insightful and well- thought-out answer based on his encyclopedic knowledge of the rules and principles of corporate governance as well as years of practising what he preaches. I commend Karl and his wisdom to you…

The amount of depth and information that I got about running a listed company has been outstanding. This will definitely allow me to the run the organisation as an effective board member and be better than we’re doing. It’s a system of compliance and governance that allow Aramex to become a better organisation.
