Governance & board development 11 projects

Board effectiveness assessment & development

“Your board meetings feel procedural rather than strategic — trustees are disengaged, contributions are uneven, and the board is not adding the value it should.”
See project

Board recruitment & induction support

“You struggle to find trustees with the right skills — and when you do recruit, new board members take far too long to become useful contributors.”
See project

Board reporting, data and information

“Your Board feels it does not have the right information to function properly.”
See project

Board self-evaluation facilitation

“Your board has never formally evaluated itself — there is no shared understanding of what good looks like and no accountability for improving.”
See project

CEO / executive director transition planning

“A leadership transition is approaching — planned or unplanned — and the organisation has no succession plan, no process, and no safeguards in place.”
See project

Governance for a new organisation

“Your new organisation needs a board and you don't know how or why to set one up.”
See project

Governance framework review & strengthening

“Your governance has grown organically and is now unclear — nobody is quite sure who decides what, and accountability lines are blurred.”
See project

Strategic risk assessment & management

“When your board asks about your top risks, you can't give a structured or confident answer — risk management is informal and largely reactive.”
See project

Strengthening board leadership

“Your Board leadership (chair and vice chair, maybe treasurer) are not performing well and are not able to lead the Board effectively”
See project

Tension between Board and the Executive

“There is palpable tension between (parts of) the Board and the Executive, on key matters that need resolving.”
See project

Trustee training & capacity building

“Your trustees are willing but underprepared — they lack confidence in their legal duties and financial oversight responsibilities, and it shows in board meetings.”
