The Board Assessment

Taking the Pulse of Governance in Action

  • Does our community impact organization have the governance structure that it needs to advance its cause?
  • Where is our board falling short in its roles and responsibilities that assures the community good governance is at work for their cause?
  • What should be included in a board development plan during the new year?
  • Is the board exercising due diligence in demonstrating leadership regarding diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility?

There are dramatic shifts taking place in how individuals, groups, and organizations view governance of their beloved community causes. From online board and committee meetings to newly created leadership structures and redefined board roles and responsibilities, community impact organizations are holding their governance behaviors to higher levels of accountability regarding their activities, decisions, and responsibilities.

A periodic governance evaluation reminds each board member of their individual and collective responsibilities to the purpose of the organization. The results can provide facts and documented perceptions for creating a year-long board development strategy.

This 90-minute interactive session will present examples of board assessments and feature a guest speaker that recently completed a board assessment and discusses the impact of the results.

Learning Outcomes

At the conclusion of this course you will have tools and information to:

  • Lead a discussion with your board leadership about the merits of a regular governance assessment as part of a culture of shared accountability with all other important facets of the organization
  • Access or design a board assessment survey for completion by board members
  • Incorporate the results of a board assessment into a board development strategy that seeks to support the board in fulfilling its governance responsibilities to the cause
  • Consider formation of a governance committee, if one does not currently exist, to oversee an annual board assessment and advance a board development strategy
