Don’t just take our word for it. Explore how our consulting has delivered tangible ROI and lasting value for businesses like yours.
Board Training – Roles, Governance & Strategy
“The board training facilitated by SBD Institute was nothing short of transformative. For the first time, our directors developed a unified understanding of their roles, governance responsibilities, and the strategic direction of the organization. The facilitators combined deep subject matter expertise with practical insights tailored to our sector. The session on Board–Executive relationships helped us unlock new levels of trust and accountability. This wasn’t just training—it was capacity building in the truest sense.”
— Jane M., Chairperson, EASA
Strategic Retreat & Planning Facilitation – Strategy Facilitation
“SBD Institute facilitated our annual strategic retreat with a level of clarity and engagement we had never experienced before. The consultants guided us through honest reflection, vision alignment, and practical action planning. By the end of the session, we had not only redefined our priorities but also walked away with a realistic execution framework. It was the most productive two days we’ve had as a leadership team in years.”
— Peter M., Regional Director, TearFund
Reputation Management & Ethics for Boards
“The training on reputation management and ethics by SBD Institute came at the perfect time for our board. With increasing public scrutiny and stakeholder expectations, we needed tools and frameworks that went beyond compliance. The facilitators delivered with depth and relevance. Our board members now understand that reputational risk is a board-level issue and are better equipped to lead with integrity and transparency. This session should be mandatory for all board members in today’s environment.”
— Prof. Grace K., Vice Chairperson, Jumuika Health Network
