The Strategic Advantage of an Experienced Non-Executive Director

Dear Chairman/CEO,

In a world where change is not just inevitable but is accelerating at an unprecedented pace, the composition of your board becomes not merely a matter of compliance, but a strategic imperative.

I write to you today as someone who has been at the helm, weathering storms and pioneering innovations for 20 years, across a spectrum of industries, from mining to ICT communications, from the groundwork of startups to the strategic maneuvers of global corporations.

My name is Murray Slatter, and I offer a partnership that goes beyond advisory – I bring a vision that could catalyze your company’s trajectory toward unprecedented success.

In my career, I have not only led businesses through the highs and lows but also transformed them from ‘market participants’ to ‘market leaders’. Further, often with my leadership, we have ‘Changes the Game’ altogether.

My philosophy is simple yet profound: empower good companies to become great, and in doing so, transform lives and communities. Underpinning this philosophy is a seasoned blueprint that I have developed in my journey of scaling

  1. 34 businesses 10 x (bottom line x 10 times)
  2. 4 businesses 100 x (bottom line x 100 times)

This is not just about profit margins and market shares; it’s about creating legacies that outlive market cycles, making impacts that matter for customers, communities, and teams.

As a non-executive director, board member, advisor to the board, or member of your advisory board, my focus is on ensuring that your organization is not just prepared for the future but is actively shaping it. The breadth of my experience allows me to bring to the table:

  1. Strategic Foresight: With a background leading both global corporations and local SMEs, I understand the nuances of scaling and sustainability. I am adept at identifying industry trends and navigating through economic cycles to steer companies towards growth and resilience.
  2. Transformational Leadership: My track record is punctuated with stories of consistent growth, expanding market shares, and win-win-win solutions that have significantly impacted markets. I lead with an ethos that prioritizes engagement, innovation, and tangible outcomes.
  3. Operational Excellence: Utilizing frameworks like Human-Centered Design, Agile/Scrum, and process re-engineering, I have a history of optimizing operations that not only cut costs but also enhance product and service delivery, ultimately boosting customer satisfaction and loyalty.
  4. Holistic Growth: I place immense value on customer engagement, product-market fit, business development ROI, and financial outcomes, but not at the expense of team learning and development. After all, companies are as good as their teams.
  5. Governance with a Heart: In an age where companies are increasingly held accountable for their social and environmental impact, I bring a perspective that balances corporate governance with corporate conscience, ensuring that your company leads as a beacon of responsible business.

I am seeking to connect deeper, to meet and engage with visionary leaders like you who are not satisfied with the status quo and who strive for greatness. The future beckons with challenges and opportunities – I am here to ensure that your company not only meets them but masters them.
