How we make it easy for Directors & Board Members

Our research indicates that directors benefit from receiving feedback at least once a year to enhance their performance and effectiveness. However, many do not get the insights they need. Our Director Effectiveness Reports and Scorecards are designed to address this gap by providing clear and actionable feedback. These tools save time and offer valuable insights, highlighting each director’s strengths and areas for improvement, and comparing their views with those of their peers. This comparison helps directors understand their position relative to others and offers practical suggestions for growth.

Understanding Diverse Perspectives

It’s common for directors to have varying opinions on the board’s performance. Some may feel things are going well, while others might see opportunities for improvement. This disparity provides a valuable opportunity for all directors, and ideally the executives who attend board meetings, to participate in our comprehensive board survey. The resulting report will guide discussions by pinpointing successes, areas needing attention, and any discrepancies in opinions.

Focus on Broader Improvements

Directors also seek to enhance the effectiveness of board committees, the performance of the CEO and leadership team, and the overall board strategy. Our surveys and expert guidance are tailored to help address these areas, supporting directors in driving meaningful progress and improvement.
