Board Evaluation

Empowering Boards to Excel

The expectations for board performance are continually escalating due to mounting pressures from regulators, investors, and stakeholders. In this dynamic landscape, effective board evaluations play a pivotal role in meeting the evolving standards of corporate governance.

Evaluation of a company’s board of directors is a best practice for all public and private companies. As self-evaluations are often ineffective, boards increasingly seek external advisers to provide objective feedback on board culture, structure, and composition and ensure that critical stakeholders and constituencies are represented.
