Furr Resources, Inc. specializes in board and director development to improve governance practices, and thereby client performance. As board consultants with strong facilitation skills, they fill a niche left void by accountants and attorneys. They focus on developing performance, not just compliance with the letter of the law. Their ability to create a safe environment in a board retreat or discussion held to resolve difficult, sensitive issues has earned them high praise from many board chairmen, directors and CEOs.

Furr also offers organization and executive development services to support the board in ensuring that they fulfill their succession pipeline responsibilities. The principals bring a valued and seasoned perspective to support the board and management in developing the organization to thrive in the midst of challenging external conditions. Finally, they equip the talent in the succession pipeline with the executive leadership skills needed to successfully take the organization into the future.

Furr has developed a full package of services which can be customized to help boards evolve their working processes, competencies, policies, and practices in support of the organization's vision and strategy. Refining how they fulfill their duties and responsibilities improves governance quality and enables the board to add more value to the organization. In this way, the board and each director becomes a competitive asset and strategic partner for the organization and executive management.

The partners' counsel and tools are based in the “best practices” of boards and executives of successful organizations, and on their extensive research and experience over several decades.
