New accreditation framework for directors to be launched

It will allow directors to have greater clarity on competencies in sustainability.

The Singapore Institute of Directors (SID) will be rolling out a new accreditation framework for directors to have greater clarity on digitisation and sustainability.

Deputy Prime Minister Lawrence Wong revealed this in a speech during the SID 25th anniversary commemorative event. He cited the three important considerations that boards should look at including talent, reducing carbon footprint, and technology investment.

“With this framework, directors will be able to better navigate the wide range of courses that are available to build their competencies. The framework will also provide a common standard for companies to assess directorship appointment,” said Wong.

He also disclosed that the SID is launching the “Governance for Good Alliance, to raise the profile of Singapore’s ecosystem of good governance and recognise those who have contributed invaluable resources to SID’s cause.”

“More stakeholders will join the Alliance and rally behind SID’s mission to uplift corporate governance, and good business decision-making, in Singapore,” said Wong.

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
