A short, structured review of how your committee is set up and operating. What’s working. What’s risky. What to fix first. You’ll leave with Red/Amber/Green ratings across ten governance areas and a 90-day action plan you can actually use.

side dishes

Available as add-ons, or à la carte.

These popular services sit alongside the Health Check or stand alone. We’ll often flag them once we’ve seen what your committee needs — but you’re welcome to order any of them separately.  Don’t see what you’re looking for? Give us a call.  We can generally whip up something to suit all tastes.

Strategic priorities translated into a practical plan with clear actions, owners and timeframes.
