A regular review of the board can ensure that no company misses out on opportunities and risks. It’s also a fantastic way to increase the effectiveness and performance of the board. There are many different ways that a board review can be conducted. It could be an internal assessment conducted periodically using a board survey, such as the benchmarked, low-cost surveys provided by Board Surveys, or it could be a completely independent external evaluation.
It can be a good opportunity for the board to discuss and create actions plans to improve. This is the reason it’s essential to have a facilitator that can facilitate the discussion without bias. Having someone who is experienced with the challenges of highly performing boards can be helpful.
Another issue that can be raised during the boardroom review is identifying and addressing cultural and working practice issues within the top management. This is where it can be difficult to make changes. For instance, the old image of the stifling and remote director is rapidly becoming outdated in the modern business world.
