Top of his agenda will be to give Williams his list of close-season targets as he looks to build on the foundation put in place by his predecessor Mark Hughes.
"I'm meeting with Paul (today) and one of the things we will be discussing is a list of potential transfer targets," the Rovers chairman told the Lancashire Telegraph.
"We are getting inundated with players at the moment, as you can imagine, and this is an opportunity to decide which direction we want to go in.
"The target positions are very similar to what they were under Mark Hughes, but the actual targets have changed a bit because Paul wants to put his own stamp on things, which is only natural.
"However, the overall strategy remains the same, and that's continuity."
He added: "We want to stick with what we've got to a large extent but if we can add one or two that will strengthen the first XI then that would be great.
"We've got a good squad here, we finished seventh in the Premier League last season, and we've been a top 10 side for the last three seasons, so we don't need to make sweeping changes.
"As I've said though, it would be nice to add a couple of new faces, but they are going to have to be good players to get into our first XI."
