Discover the right evaluation for your not-for-profit board

Our not-for-profit board evaluations range from fully self-managed evaluations to in-depth tailored evaluations designed to suit your board’s unique environment and circumstances. Uncover how your board is performing when it comes to the five factors of board performance: effective oversight, culture and behaviour, purpose and leadership, decision making and board operations.

Our self-managed evaluations allow you to independently set up and manage your evaluation saving you and your board precious time. All self-managed evaluations include pre-built question sets, automated reports and actionable recommendations for your board.

Our tailored evaluations dig deep, with customised question sets designed with your board’s specific needs in mind (including those unique to charities, sports, or faith-based organisations), personalised reports and targeted, actionable recommendations.

All evaluations have the option to add on other services including developing your board's competency matrix, post evaluation workshops or individual director evaluations. Contact our Governance Services team.
