Customized In-Boardroom Education
NACD's interactive in-boardroom education courses are timely, confidential and offer a facilitated discussion rather than a lecture. Presentation materials are used as a guide rather than a script, thus allowing your board to be fully engaged in the sessions. These courses are the most targeted and effective director education options available from NACD.
Board Evaluations
NACD conducts full board, board committee, director peer and senior management evaluations and utilizes governance professionals and current directors to facilitate the process. NACD's 360-degree evaluation process includes the examination of individual director skill sets and overall board composition, which often provides a roadmap for board succession planning.
Director and C-Suite Succession Planning
This customized program equips boards to implement a succession plan by examining individual director skill sets and your board's overall composition in relation to your company's mission, strategies and risk profile.
Board Benchmarking
