Evolving the practice of chairing

The Board Advisory Partnership was founded on a clear belief: that the role of the Chair has never been more important. Sitting at the intersection of organisations, investors and wider society, Chairs play a defining role in long-term value creation and effective governance.

Through its Chairing in Practice programme, the Partnership has built a distinctive learning environment where new and experienced Chairs come together to share insight, challenge assumptions and develop their practice. Grounded in real experience rather than theory alone, the programme reflects the evolving demands of chairing in an increasingly complex world.

Operating as the unified Global Mentors Group allows our work to sit within a wider global context. This connects the Partnership’s peer-based offering to a broader service rooted in an international community of former Chairs, CEOs and senior leaders, while preserving its collaborative, practice-led ethos.

About Global Mentors Group

Global Mentors Group is a global community of experienced Mentors and leaders supporting Chairs, CEOs and senior executives at pivotal moments in their leadership journeys.

The group brings together a small number of established mentoring and leadership development organisations. Together they combine international reach with a depth of experience that spans governance, executive leadership and organisational complexity.

Across regions and sectors, Global Mentors Group works discreetly with leaders managing change, accountability and transformation – drawing on the insight of those who have led at the highest level themselves.

For The Board Advisory Partnership community, this means continuity of purpose alongside access to a broader global network and deeper collective perspective.

The Original Mentor

Mentoring has its roots in one of the oldest leadership stories. In Homer’s Odyssey, Mentor was entrusted with guiding the young Telemachus while Odysseus was away — not by directing him, but by offering judgement, perspective and wisdom born of experience. This enduring idea of counsel, grounded in trust rather than instruction, remains the essence of mentoring today.

That same tradition sits at the heart of Global Mentors Group today. 

We exist to provide leaders with access to seasoned peers who have walked the path before them, offering the clarity, judgement and discretion required to lead at the highest level.
