As he was a shareholder someone must have bought him out.

According to the bio of Leonard Brody which appeared on the Imedia Breakthrough Convention site where, he appeared as a speaker in Henderson, Nevada over the last three days, Mr Brody appears to no longer be a Director of Coventry City FC.
The bio of Mr Brody, who heads up Clarity Digital, talks of his involvement with Coventry City in the past tense and reads as follows:
"Leonard also acts as an advisor to venture capital funds in America, Europe and Asia and 'Throughout his career, has also advised several companies including, the Associated Press, Alliance Atlantis, Derby County Football Club, Coventry City Football Club and MTV Enterprises. In addition, he was the Senior Technology Advisor to the Canadian Minister of Foreign Affairs & International Trade.
Currently, Leonard is a Senior Advisor to the Canadian Ministry of International Trade and a Director of Canada’s largest technology association, CATA."
Lot of conclusion jumping there Mr. Monks.

Can't he be tweeted and asked ?

I hope this is another false rumour. We need Leonard more than we need any other person on the roster and I include Andy Thorn and of course, any of the players. He is a controversial character for sure, and regrets his I'll fated Twitter experiment and to a degree the poor relationship he has with the Chairman, but his understanding of the Digital Agenda and Social Media is vital to our long term game plan. Ensuring the Brand has a Global reach especially penetrating into India and APAC is a huge part of the SISU long term strategy, he is a personal freind of Onye and is a lightning rod for ideas and thought leadership, a rainmaker, a game changer, a true sky blue Torchbearer for the Brand... Buds.

what has he actually done for the club? nothing so no loss.

Yep.
Now if it had said "used to be" or "was" that might be different. This just says "has advised." Doesn't hint that he is no longer doing it.

Leonard is our "Franchise Director" bringing much needed youth, vigor and Global reach to what would be a sad retinue of Tawdry professional administrators and heartbreakingly provincial business types, well meaning but by their very definition unfit to take the Brand forwards. We need Brody to remain to offer vision and focus with a free thinking independent spirit lest we offer no intrinsic differentiation to investors who may otherwise seek opportunity at clubs like Forest - re recent shenanigans.

Sorry if I'm wrong, but apart from being mates with the sisu representative (can't remember his name) he's got nothing to do with SISU has he?
Correct. He's an independant shareholder and appointed boardmember.

Erm..appointed by whom?
I'd missed you, Len!
Appointed by either the shareholders (which he is one) or the existing board.
Anyway the offal still lists him as a Director, so I think this thread is moot.

I suspect he is an investor and has had his fingers burnt. I also think that having a certain amount percentage wise of a stake allowed him a seat on the board, I also think that his twitter experiance shocked him at the level of abuse, opinions by "ordinary" people (fans) have on those who run "our" football club. He will still have his share but has probably ducked out of being a board member which may have implications when things go tits up.
I am just surprised why our local media, Telegraph, CWR don't ask the question !!

I think if you ask the question, Brody will have paid nothing for his shares. Does anyone know otherwise? I don't think he has put a penny into the club. Nor has Dulieu or Ony Igw. They all just take
