Skills Matrix

We have developed a board skills tool to determine clearly both board collective bench strength and current and future skill gaps.​​

While experienced directors understand governance and the role of a board, having a Skills Matrix specific to your organisation and industry can ensure professional development and recruitment is targeted.

Board Evaluation

Our services reflect that chairs and individual directors are open to continuous development through self-assessment and evaluation. The chair establishes an appropriate competency framework to achieve these outcomes. ​​

We help you establish an understanding of how your board and directors are performing individually and as a team. Customised surveys and/or interview methodologies can help identify team dynamics, board development needs and support board succession planning.
