Governance
The standards expected of governing boards have risen dramatically over recent years. Most organisations now recognise the need to keep their governance arrangements under constant review. Excellent performance of governance requires a combination of clear structures, effective processes, experienced people and appropriate behaviours. Together these can deliver high quality governance. We help organisations to:
- Conduct board performance reviews
We carry out interview and questionaire based perfomance reviews to help boards pinpoint what they do well and areas for improvement. We benchmark performance against other organisatioons and we work with board task groups to support implementation of agreed actions - Re-structure governance
We help governing bodies to review and re-structure their overall governance arrangements.
This can include:- Re-structuring boards and establishing new ones
- Re-structuring committees, advisory boards and task groups
- Creating and developing international structures
- Developing structures across the four nations of the UK.
- Strengthen board and management relationships
We help boards and senior managers to align expectations of each other, clarify relationships and work effectively as a team - Develop governance skills
