In order to support those responsible for ensuring their Board is reviewed professionally, the Institute has created a directory of accredited board performance reviewers. These providers have demonstrated an exemplary service in the undertaking of board performance reviews and are aligned to our Code of Practice.

Board Performance Reviews, also known as board evaluations, are an important tool to support boards. Board Performance Reviews are a critical tool for organisations to ensure continuous improvement in governance and board-level decision making. If performed effectively, they foster accountability, enhance decision making and help organisations align strategic objectives.
