Board members should not simply sit on a board. They should serve. The best boards dream big, bold dreams; support those bold dreams with thoughtful, detailed plans; and ensure that the organization delivers brilliantly on those plans. While most boards are well-intentioned, few are guided by a framework designed to make this happen consistently over time. That’s why we developed High Impact Boards, an intuitive, evidence-based framework that will help take your board’s performance to the next level.
