Why this matters

Good governance rarely fails all at once. It erodes quietly.

Governance breaks down in the gaps nobody is checking. This Board Health Check gives board members and executives a clear-eyed view of how the board is really performing across 4 critical areas.

In 10 minutes, get a personalized score and practical next steps to close the gaps before they become real problems.

4 critical areas

Where blind spots hide

Roles & Responsibilities

Whether the board governs and trusts leadership to manage operations.

Strategic Leadership

How actively the board sets, reviews and monitors long-term direction.

Board Composition & Recruitment

The skills, recruitment and succession that keep the board effective.

Meeting Effectiveness

Whether meetings stay strategic, well prepared and genuinely participatory.

Who built this

Built by governance expert Brad Adams, for boards that want to get better

We spend our days in the boardroom: advising nonprofit and corporate boards, facilitating governance reviews, and helping directors close the gaps between good intentions and effective oversight.

Why we created it: most boards only discover a weakness after it costs them. We wanted to put a clear-eyed diagnostic in every director's hands, free, so the conversation can start before there is a problem to fix.
