Board self-evaluation facilitation for nonprofits
Challenge
Signs you need a board self-evaluation
Your board has never formally evaluated itself — there is no shared understanding of what good looks like and no accountability for improving.
How a Nonprofit Builder consultant helps
- Design and administer the evaluation, synthesise the findings, and facilitate a board session to discuss results and agree on actions.
Key deliverables
- Self-evaluation questionnaire, anonymised findings report, facilitated board discussion, agreed action commitments, suggested review timeline.
