She also highlights how the portal functions as one unified archive, where documents such as articles of association, rules of procedure, owner agreements and annual accounts are systematically located and easily accessible to everyone on the board.

In Sisse’s board roles, structure and progress are crucial – especially in the boards where she serves as chairman. Here she is responsible for both setting a clear direction and ensuring that the board’s work actually contributes to the company’s development and the management’s ability to execute.

BetterBoard’s board portal has become a central tool in this process. With features like the year wheel, agenda templates, and minute archive, she can plan meetings well in advance, follow up on previous decisions, and maintain a common thread between meetings. It creates a workspace where nothing falls between two chairs, and where both the board of directors and the executive board can focus on progress and strategy.

“I see my most important role as being a good sparring partner for the executive board and ensuring that the board creates real value. “With the board portal, it becomes much easier to stay focused and to follow up,” says Sisse Fisker.

Especially in foundations and owner-managed companies, where Sisse often contributes to developing structures and processes, the board portal makes a noticeable difference. It ensures that documents and decisions do not drown in emails or unmanageable archives, and it contributes to more professional collaboration all the way around the table.

Another important feature is the option for digital signatures. This has streamlined the end of meetings and made it possible to approve minutes and decisions in real time. Instead of waiting weeks to collect signatures, the board can now close items while they are still relevant, and this frees up energy for the forward-looking work that Sisse values highly in all her board roles.

At the same time, she experiences that the board portal strengthens the transparency of the work. When agendas, appendices and decisions are all together and accessible, it creates a common frame of reference and makes it easier to make knowledge-based decisions. This helps to raise the quality of all board work and strengthens the relationship with the executive board, which experiences that the board works efficiently and with structure.

Many boards of directors have a wide range of profiles – some are used for digital solutions, while others prefer physical paper and more familiar workflows. Sisse Fisker has learned that BetterBoard’s board portal manages to embrace both types of users and create a smooth transition to digital.

The platform’s functionality makes it easy to meet different needs. For example, meeting materials can be accessed digitally, but they can also be downloaded in one PDF via the portal function “Dan mødebog“, which many still greatly value.

“It has been a great help that you can, for example, print meeting notes or save agendas as PDF. This makes it easier to make the leap from paper to portal – without losing the overview.”
