Effective boards.
We offer an impartial assessment of your board's performance, ensuring you make the most informed decisions for your organisation. We provide expert guidance and recommendations for improvement, including board composition, processes and procedures and communication strategies.
We understand that governance is complex. We work with your directors to gather insights and feedback to provide recommendations based on best practices.
An annual board review is a good way of making sure your board is held accountable, especially if you are working for a non-profit organization or a smaller organisation with fewer members and stakeholders scrutinising the board.
Boards are dynamic.
Directors come and go and each time the dynamics of your board changes. Organisations also face constant change to the internal and external environment and must be prepared to respond strategically in the face of uncertainty.
Board performance and director behaviour set the tone within organisations so a board that is transparent and shows it is willing to learn and improve is a valuable role model for any organisation.
Regular governance reviews are recommended or required by regulators around the world. A prudent board self-assess regularly and carry out some degree of independent assessment periodically as assurance and as part of a learning organisation’s commitment to improvement at all levels.
