qualifications (noun, qual-i-fi-ca-tions, \ ˌkwɑːləfəˈkeɪʃənz \) of directors (noun, di-rec-tors, \ dəˈrektərz \)
Definition: is a set of skills, education, experience or any other special qualities that can be demanded from an individual if he or she wants to be qualified for the position of a director in a company. In most situations, there are no special requirements presented in front of a candidate, but if he or she has special expertise or education that can be used for the company’s advantage, it substantially raises his or her chances to be appointed as a member of the board. Additionally, a company’s article of association can also demand a shareholding qualification from an individual that wants to serve as a director.
