AGM Communcations Coaching

ANNUAL GENERAL MEETINGS – STAND OUT IN THE CROWD

With reporting season on us again, there are audible groans from boards of many  Australian companies with the prospect of the AGM. They regard the event as a formality of corporate governance and this usually comes across as the general impression to shareholders. Not many points are clocked up on the reputation index for the company.

The opposite is true from the shareholders camp, this is the main opportunity for ordinary shareholders to communicate personally with the Board and management of their companies and they see it as their right to be treated as very important people.

 In the shareholders’ minds, and few would publicly argue, their rights include full and frank disclosure on issues of concern – whatever they may be in the shareholders’ minds – and answers to questions put directly to them.

 So why not stand out in the corporate crowd and see the AGM as an extremely important opportunity to maximise the company’s relationship with its shareholders and approach it that way?  The old adage applies; if it’s worth doing, it’s worth doing well. So why not make the most of it?

 You could stand out in a crowd and:

 • transform your AGM into a positive communications platform for your corporate messages 10033055Man in Press Conference.jpg

• create an opportunity to capture shareholder and market confidence or minimise current reputational damage

• create tangible benefits and measurable value
