Core Governance

Training for company secretaries

A practical half-day workshop that equips company secretaries and governance professionals to run a credible board evaluation themselves.

Board evaluation workshop

For company secretaries, governance officers and board secretariats who run, or want to run, their board’s own evaluation.

A board evaluation is only as good as the process behind it. In one half-day session, participants work through every stage of a credible evaluation, drawing on experience of more than 150 board evaluations.

  • Plan and scope

    Deciding what to evaluate, when, and how to set it up with the Chairperson.

  • Design the questionnaires

    Questions that reflect King V, your founding documents and applicable legislation.

  • Run interviews

    Conducting confidential interviews that add the context numbers cannot.

  • Analyse and report

    Turning responses into clear, anonymised findings and recommendations.

  • Present the results

    Taking the Chairperson and board through the findings, including sensitive ones.

Format

A half-day workshop, online or in person, with practical templates participants can use straight away. Available as a public session or in-house for a board secretariat or a group of entities. We share a training outline upfront, and hold a check-in with the company secretary within a month of the training.

We also conduct board evaluations ourselves. See board evaluations.
