The strategic backbone: Why an effective board is paramount for organisational prosperity
Board reviews are a vital compass for for-profit companies, guiding them towards greater efficiency, transparency, and strategic alignment. Our reviews scrutinise the board’s overall effectiveness in fulfilling its fiduciary duties and driving organisational success. A comprehensive assessment will often include the evaluation of the performance of individual board members.
By conducting regular board reviews, corporate companies and family businesses can identify strengths, pinpoint areas for improvement, and implement tailored strategies to enhance governance practices, foster innovation, and mitigate risks. Ultimately, embracing the insights from board reviews empowers corporate and family boards to adapt to evolving market dynamics, fortify stakeholder trust, and achieve sustainable growth in today’s competitive landscape.

How Board Benchmarking helps organisations in the for-profit sector
Board Benchmarking empowers for-profit companies to conduct comprehensive board reviews that drive organisational excellence. And better boards means better organisations. By comparing their board’s performance, structure, and practices against our extensive database, companies gain invaluable insights into areas of strength and opportunities for enhancement. Leveraging this comparative analysis, corporate and family boards can identify gaps in governance processes, strategic oversight, and diversity, enabling them to set informed goals and prioritise initiatives for improvement.
THE GOLD STANDARD
Unlock easy to understand data and insights with our benchmarked reporting
Because we have such a large database we can also ensure that large organisations are benchmarked against larger organisations and smaller ones against smaller ones in the same industry or sector. This adds further validity and value to the benchmarked results.
The process starts with a world class, easy to use survey
The 7 point response scale provides just the right calibration of survey responses. Our surveys are even designed to work with a screen reader to cater for those who are vision impaired.
