The board pack structure your board actually reads: six sections, decisions up front.
Executive summary, financials, KPIs, strategic updates, decisions needed, appendix. Boards don't want more slides, they want the same structure every quarter with the story up front. Lurio generates the pack on your brand from your quarterly data, and review agents check the numbers reconcile before the meeting.
The 6-section board report structure
The discipline here is consistency: keep the same sections in the same order every quarter, so board members always know where to look.
01
Executive summary
One page stating the quarter in three beats: what happened, what it means, what you need from the board. Write it last, put it first. If a board member reads nothing else, this page must carry the meeting.
02
Financial performance
Revenue, costs, cash, and runway against plan, with variances explained rather than hidden. Every figure here must match the KPI section and the appendix: boards lose confidence the moment two slides disagree.
03
KPI dashboard
The handful of metrics that define the business, shown against target and against last quarter. Keep the set stable across quarters. A KPI that appears and disappears looks like it's being managed, not measured.
04
Strategic updates
Progress on the initiatives the board already knows about: what moved, what stalled, what you learned. Tie each update back to the plan the board approved. New initiatives get proposed here, not buried in the appendix.
05
Decisions needed
The asks, stated plainly: approvals, hires, budget, introductions. Give each decision its own space with the context needed to decide. A pack that surfaces clear asks produces a meeting that ends with clear answers.
06
Appendix
The supporting detail: full financial statements, cohort data, org chart, anything a diligent board member might want. Keeping the detail here keeps the main pack readable without hiding anything.
Why a generated deck beats a template
Skip the template. Get the structure that wins, generated on your brand.
A template gives you a layout
The file was never the hard part. A template still leaves you supplying the brand, the copy, and the argument, which is where the real time goes. And because everyone starts from the same file, every deck built from it looks the same.
Lurio starts from your brand
Paste your website and Lurio builds your brand guidelines: colour, type scale, logo usage, voice, spacing. It then drafts every part of the structure above on that brand, with your content, so nothing looks dropped into someone else's design.
Review agents critique before you send
A template can't tell you whether the argument holds. Five review agents (Strategy, Narrative, Data Integrity, Brand Compliance, Audience Fit) critique every page with cited findings, and nothing ships without your sign-off.
