Board Self-Assessment

Measure Your Board’s Performance With MASB’s Online Survey Tool

A board self-assessment is a key step on the road to governance excellence. A fundamental part of quality leadership is regularly evaluating how the board is doing.

A board self-assessment serves many purposes, including:

Fostering healthy dialogue
Improving the board’s understanding of its roles and responsibilities
Gathering the perceptions of all board members
Identifying next steps for board development
Demonstrating continuous improvement

MASB encourages boards to develop a strong commitment to regularly evaluate and improve their practices and procedures, and is available to help member boards meet this important challenge.
