A new era for Company Director

    When you unwrap your copy of Company Director next week, you’ll notice that we’ve made some important changes to provide even more insights and value to our members.


    As part of our new AICD content strategy, we’ve not only refreshed the magazine in a major way, but we’ve also added more pages and launched some new features.

     

    At the same time, we’re doubling the number of digital articles, podcasts and other online resources to deliver a more flexible and responsive content ecosystem designed to keep you at the forefront of the issues shaping Australian boardrooms.

    After a significant member consultation, we’re also reducing the number of print magazines from 11 per year to six. You told us very clearly that you want timely, practical and trusted insights on the digital platforms that best
    fit your professional lives and that’s exactly what we’ll provide.

    After all, the most pressing boardroom issues don’t operate in monthly cycles. The unprecedented geopolitical disruption and accelerating digital transformation mean you need your news delivered promptly to keep you at the
    forefront of governance.

    More news, more analysis

    Meanwhile, your bigger, better Company Director magazine will feature deeper dives into the latest trends, unrivalled expert analysis and exclusive interviews with Australia’s leading directors and decision makers.

    The print magazine will reflect the evolving role of directors and the complexity of the environments in which boards operate. The pages have a more contemporary, visual design and new sections aligned to every stage of a director’s career.

    The larger format creates space to tell more member stories and explain the most complex governance issues.

    As the world’s largest director institute, the AICD remains committed to providing reliable, independent and authoritative governance content - whether you’re reading it on your phone, listening on your commute to work or sitting down with the magazine.
