Empowering Strategic Leadership

In a complex business environment, strong governance is essential. We specialise in building high-performing boards by connecting organisations with directors who combine strategic insight, professional expertise, ethical integrity, and alignment with company values. 

The Power of Effective Board Governance with Viavanta

In Switzerland’s dynamic business landscape, the role of executive leadership is crucial in guiding organisations through challenging circumstances and ensuring sustainable growth. Central to this success is the synergy between an independent board, a skilled chairperson, and a visionary CEO. At Viavanta, we understand this vital interplay and specialise in building high-performing leadership teams that drive results.

The Role of Directors: From Oversight to Strategic Leadership

Directors play a critical role in an organisation that goes far beyond mere oversight.. They act as strategic advisors, offering valuable insights to CEOs while upholding governance standards and fiduciary duties. The Chairperson, in particular, plays a key role in leading the board with a blend of authority and strategic insight. 

Guiding Strategy and Ensuring Accountability

In today’s landscape of disruption and increased corporate social responsibility, the demands on board members have evolved.. At Viavanta, we recognize these evolving needs and are committed to sourcing board candidates who bring the necessary expertise, ethical commitment, and alignment with your organisation’s values.

Partnering for Success

With an extensive network of seasoned professionals, Viavanta excels at identifying leaders who embody the qualities essential for effective board governance. Our rigorous assessment processes ensure that candidates not only possess the necessary skills but also align with your organisation’s strategic goals and cultural values.

Strategic Precision in Board Search

"As we prepared our company for a strategic ownership transition, finding the right board member was a critical step. We needed someone with extensive Swiss retail and e-commerce expertise at CEO level, combined with the ability to guide our strategic alignment and fit seamlessly with our existing board culture. Viavanta’s support throughout this process was exceptional. Their understanding of our needs, thorough market insights, and structured approach ensured we found the perfect addition to our team. With this appointment, we successfully navigated the strategic realignment, and three years later, achieved a smooth and successful sale of the company to new ownership."
