Helping Boards Govern with Clarity and Confidence
You have a great group of well-intentioned, high-caliber, and motivated people, yet meetings feel long, and you wonder if you’re truly moving the organization forward.
I’ve been there… and you’re not alone.
The great news is there’s a way to govern with clarity, confidence, and excellence.
Board Coaching for a Better Way to Govern
I partner with boards and CEOs to establish and implement clear governance practices that improve decision-making, create healthier board–CEO relationships, and enable the organization to lead, grow, and steward its mission more effectively.
The Effective Governance Framework
Made up of proven strategies and practical tools, the framework includes:
The Three Modes of Governance
The 4 Decision Roles
The Decision Rights Matrix
The CEO-Chair Covenant
Board Agenda and Packet
Dashboard Redesign
Coaching Options
Board Reset Workshop
(half or whole day)
This workshop helps boards reduce friction, improve decision-making, and focus on the work that matters most. Using proven governance tools—from the three modes and decision rights to agenda, covenant, and dashboard redesign—boards leave with a clearer, more effective way of working together.
Board Effectiveness Workshop
(60 Minutes - FREE)
This interactive workshop helps boards move from unclear governance to focused, high-impact leadership. By clarifying roles, decision rights, and boundaries, boards and CEOs gain a practical framework for working together more effectively.
Board Governance Mode Workshop
(60 Minutes - FREE)
This interactive workshop helps boards and executive leaders understand how boards add their greatest value—and why many well-intentioned boards unintentionally underperform. Through a practical introduction to the three modes of governance, participants gain a shared language and clearer path toward healthier, more effective board leadership.
Monthly Retainer
(no long-term contract)
I partner with your board and executive leaders to embed effective governance into real meetings and decisions. Through ongoing coaching, board meeting participation, and CEO–chair conversations, the framework becomes a lived practice—not just a one-time workshop.
