First, geographically. Boardroom Metrics  expanded it’s services to Ottawa and Montreal with staff physically located in these markets.

Second, the Company is providing advisory expertise in two new areas: employee health and wellness, and corporate learning and training. Crocker believes that companies who recognize how employee health and wellness and corporate learning are linked to performance can achieve a significant competitive advantage.  According to Crocker, “the only sustainable competitive advantage is people”.

Third, the Company has expanded its tools offering to include the Chairmans View System. Crocker was attracted to Chairman’s View because it helps CEO owners differentiate and focus on the two key elements of their role: being the owner first, and being the CEO second. According to Crocker based on almost every company he’s worked with – “the owner CEO frequently gets hung up in the day to day and stops thinking like an owner. As a result, too many private businesses owners fail to create sustainable, transferable business value. Unfortunately, the numbers show that when the majority of private businesses are put up for sale, most DO NOT succeed. Chairman’s View helps CEO owners avoid that mistake”.

Fourth, Boardroom Metrics has significantly upgraded it’s interim management practice. Now called ‘Accomplished Executives’, Boardroom Metrics now sources and places proven senior, experienced executives, consultants and professional Chairman.  The service compliments Boardroom Metrics tools and advisory services as well as standing on it’s own for companies seeking proven talent for any role.

Finally, Boardroom Metrics has launched a new website here. The site highlights the Company’s new services as well as incorporating social media and other tools for clients and senior executives to dialogue with the Boardroom Metrics.
