Board Assessment & Success Planning

How a Simple Board Assessment Results in Big Impact

Nonprofit board members have many roles and responsibilities.


How does a board know it is fulfilling its responsibilities well?


Reaching consensus on the organization’s values is one good indicator. Achieving resource development goals is another. These are great examples of a board on the move. Yet, there are many other questions a well-functioning board could consider.


  • Do our board members understand their governance responsibilities?
  • Is there an optimal working relationship between our board and executive director?
  • How is our board viewed in the community?


It’s time for boards to stop guessing and start with an accurate snapshot of the board’s current state.


A methodical assessment is the starting place for a board to understand its performance and plan its evolution in advancing the community cause it serves.
