The idea is a good one. Sadly, the execution is too often suspect.
Having access to, and advice from, someone who understands your business and industry , who can provide wise counsel but is also unafraid to ask you difficult questions, sounds a great notion.
So what happened? Why did it all go wrong. Well the cosy free-lunch time-servers providing little or no value started the rot. Then the corporate governance tried to make non-execs into policemen.
Time for a reboot.
