A well conducted external evaluation investigates and challenges the effectiveness of the board with only the board's best interests, and its contribution to the company's success, on the agenda. It encourages directors to step back from the day-to-day business, and provides them with a rare opportunity to question the board’s definition of its role and approach to its work, reflect on its impact and contribution, and prepare for the future.

A Boardroom Review evaluation is distinctive. Directors are offered an independent and confidential external view of the board’s effectiveness, rather than a synthesis of their own views, which provides a constructive catalyst for discussion and change. Every evaluation is specifically tailored for the board and the company; it is forward looking, giving observations and recommendations based on extensive evaluation experience across a portfolio of over seventy five clients.
