Board Development

Knowledgeable and competent governance boards should be one of an organization's best assets. Board members who are engaged and understand their role contribute in productive ways. Some organizations do not fully take advantage of these resources, and board members can feel frustrated that they are not making a more meaningful contribution. In other situations, an already engaged Board wishes to embark on its own development strategy and challenge its organization to meet higher standards and exceed expectations. Under either scenario, this is where we can help.

We work with organizational and/or board leadership to set goals, define roles and responsibilities, and provide training and support. By doing so, we facilitate a process that helps management and board members embrace their vital roles, and be more productive in fulfilling their functions as drivers of a group’s success. Our services include:

• Board development, including governance models and
  committee structures
• Board assessment
• Board recruitment and orientation
• CEO/management recruitment and evaluation
• Board training and support
