Tailored Not-for-Profit

Is a Tailored evaluation right for your board? 

Our tailored evaluations can be customised to suit not-for-profit boards of any size or experience level including those unique to charities, sports, or faith-based organisations. 

Guided by IoD’s Four Pillars of Governance Best Practice, your board will gain targeted insights, analysis and recommendations to elevate your board’s practice.  

Key features of a Tailored evaluation are: 

• • Question sets designed with you and tailored to your board’s specific requirements and unique environment (including those unique to charities, sports, or faith-based organisations). 
  • Access to a secure evaluation platform for all survey contributors to assess your board’s performance and provide commentary and insights in a confidential way to encourage candour. 
  • A report providing detailed analysis of your results, anonymised commentary, and recommendations for the board to improve its governance practice. Also included is a guide for how to use the evaluation insights and develop your board action plan.

Additionally, you can select any of the following included in your tailored evaluation:

• • A post-evaluation workshop facilitated by one of our governance professionals.
  • Individual evaluations for board members to evaluate their own and their fellow board members’ governance practices. Following Chair moderation, a report is produced for each board member and the chair.
  • Development or review of a board competency matrix where board members can evaluate their skills, experience and knowledge levels based on the core competencies required of the board. 
  • Director/stakeholder interviews, a review of your governance documents and/or observation of a board meeting by one of our governance professionals.  
  • Advice on developing governance systems and protocols, such as developing a board charter or conflict of interest policy. 
  • If you are interested in a tailored not-for-profit board evaluation, complete the enquiry form telling us the services you are interested in and one of our Governance Services team will be in touch to discuss how we can support your board.
