Board Advisory

Enhancing Board Effectiveness. Boards of Directors around the world are focused on increased professionalism as well as higher standards of performance and overall effectiveness. Standards for corporate governance may vary around the world, but all would agree that board effectiveness is dependent on a unique combination of board composition, board practices and clarity regarding roles and performance.

As board advisors, AESC Members are retained by boards to facilitate and advise on board effectiveness processes that may include assessing board culture, creating an inclusive environment that encourages innovative thinking, providing clarity on the roles of the Board, the Board Committees and each individual member and related performance evaluation, and developing effective induction and onboarding processes with special attention for first time board members. As trusted advisors, AESC Members can be counted on to enhance board effectiveness.
