Understanding the current situation is vital to knowing what to do next.
Boardroom effectiveness, whether Directors or Trustees, covers both compliance with legislative duties and the quality of the behaviours and dynamics around the table.
A highly effective Board works with clarity, there is an energy around the table because Directors trust one another, and challenge is constructive and beneficial.
Warning signs of an ineffective Board:
Ineffective recruitment, induction and skills across the Board
Lack of clarity around progress against Board objectives
Insufficient independent and diverse presence
Lack of meaningful insight into organisational performance
Inconsistent understanding of Board members’ roles & responsibilities
At an organisational level a lack of boardroom effectiveness often results in a lack of continuous improvement, not only in the boardroom, but across the organisation.
