Board Evaluation
Why? The benefits for boards and businesses
Every board faces continuous pressure to adapt and evolve to maintain a competitive advantage.
The macro environment in which businesses operate is one of constant change, and now more than ever, turbulence in markets and changes to working practices dictate that even highly effective boards will need to adapt to current challenges and be confident enough to lead and inspire their teams through periods of uncertainty, change, and unpredictability.
It is in this context that the ethos of continuous improvement and adaptation remains key to future success. It is unlikely that simply continuing to do what has always been done is likely to well serve a business in the near term.
The purpose of the Board Effectiveness Evaluation is not to critique what has gone before, but to ask questions as to how we can best support boards and their members to leave no untapped potential in an ever-changing world.
Whilst it may be a requirement for boards to undertake formal and rigorous annual evaluation to ensure they meet their regulatory remit and fiduciary responsibilities, more importantly this is the right thing to do - to best support boards and directors in these times of flux.
