Board Effectiveness Review
Is our board set up to succeed?
A board review built on the eight AICD Not-for-Profit Governance Principles, delivered so directors leave the process prouder than they entered it. Confidential survey, one on one conversations with every director, document review, and a report your board will actually want to discuss.
Strengths first, benchmarked, and practical.
- A board effectiveness report scored across the eight AICD domains, strengths first, benchmarked against sector data
- A customised skills matrix showing what your strategy needs next, with a succession and vacancy map
- A twelve month development plan with no more than six workstreams, each starting with a fourteen day step
- A facilitated debrief session, never a report by email
Six weeks, start to debrief.
- Weeks 1 to 2: confidential survey and document collection
- Weeks 3 to 4: one on one conversations with directors
- Week 5: report, then the facilitated debrief
Reviews come in an essentials format for small boards and a full format where every director is interviewed and a meeting is observed. A standalone skills matrix and succession map, and a renewal and legacy add-on, are also available. We will recommend the right fit on a short call.
Board renewal, not retirement.
Our language and our method reward candour. Directors leave the process with a clear picture of what the board does well and what its strategy needs next.
