CEO Survey Optional Extras
Deepen your strategic understanding of the insights.
Optional Extras for Your CEO Effectiveness Survey
Our CEO Effectiveness Survey and the accompanying CEO Effectiveness Report typically suffice for the Chair to engage in a productive conversation with the CEO. This survey-only approach is often utilised concurrently with a board review.
However, many Chairs find value in receiving guidance on supporting the CEO in interpreting and acting on the report. The CEO also benefits from an independent debrief of the report and the Chair’s feedback.
Once you’ve selected your CEO Effectiveness Survey, you can add your desired optional extras to your cart by selecting them on the checkout page.
CEO Attributes Ranking Survey
We typically recommend conducting the CEO Attributes Ranking Survey concurrently with and including it in the CEO Effectiveness Survey.
If you prefer to conduct the CEO Attributes Ranking Survey separately, please contact us for further assistance.
Survey sent to executives and additional reporting
Incorporating perspectives from the CEO’s direct reports significantly enhances the CEO effectiveness review process. We encourage all respondents to invest additional time in providing constructive written comments on the CEO’s strengths and areas for improvement. This dual feedback from executives and directors enriches the overall process.
To maintain anonymity, respondents’ ratings and written comments from directors and executives are merged.
Customisation
We will provide you with our complete list of 36 survey statements based on our framework for your review. You can delete or modify any survey items and include additional ones as needed.
For added flexibility and customisation, please consider selecting this optional extra when placing your order.
Expert advice to the Chair
One of our governance experts will advise your Chair on interpreting the CEO Effectiveness Report and guiding the CEO’s actions. Drawing on our extensive experience in debriefing numerous CEOs and other effectiveness reports, our expert will provide this advice via video, typically lasting up to one hour.
Chairs consistently find our expert advice to be highly valuable. During the session, the Chair can provide important context, ask any number of questions, and request focus on areas that may be more challenging to discuss with the CEO. Potential initiatives to support the CEO can also be explored.
Debrief with the CEO
Our experts typically debrief the CEO following an initial discussion between the Chair and CEO. Occasionally, a Chair may request to debrief the CEO beforehand, or in rare instances, they may opt for a combined debrief with our team present.
Drawing on our extensive experience conducting numerous CEO debriefs, we bring additional perspectives that enrich the discussion. This debriefing session, conducted via video, generally lasts up to one hour.
