Excerpt from evaluation of board 360 tool for NHS East of England.
We specialise in providing individually tailored review tools to boards across the public sector, with a specific set of tools for use within the NHS in line with the ‘Healthy NHS Board' principles and guidelines.
We have developed a suite of innovative and evidence based web enabled tools to support whole board evaluation, a stakeholder view of board effectiveness as well as board member and chair 360 degree review.
All these online tools are based on an extensive review of governance best practice and research. More than 90 boards have benefited from the use of these tools, and there is a growing database of information to allow boards to benchmark themselves against similar organisations.
We recommend that these surveys are complemented with consultancy support to facilitate board's interpretation of the results, and to facilitate the development of board development plans.
