Board and Chair Review

Developing your board

Regular review of the Board provides the opportunity for the Directors to develop a shared understanding of their governance roles and responsibilities.  Over time, this leads to shared performance expectations and the development of standards against which the Board will benchmark its performance. It is also an effective process for developing teamwork and encouraging trust between Board members (for more informaction view our Fact Sheet).

Effective Governance can work with your organisation to develop the best approach for your board review.  This could be: questionnaire, interviews, or a combination of both to gather data.

With the outcomes from the board and chair evaluation process, Effective Governance can facilitate a workshop to discuss the findings.  The process can be enhanced with a Governance Road Map to provide you with benchmarks and activities to pursue over the period leading up to your next review (more details).
