THEBOARDCHECKUP: A RESEARCH-BASED PODCAST

In this podcast, Professor Yvonne Cafik, PhD explores the efficacy of performance assessment with boards of directors around the world that used an online research intervention known as Board Checkup. Each podcast profiles a different board, highlighting the key characteristics of each organization and board, the governance context as well as motivations and trends in the external environment driving the practice of performance assessment.

This podcast will be of interest to board chairs, CEOS, and directors looking for accessible and affordable research-based tools and resources to measure, track, and develop in leadership and governance effectiveness. It will also be of interest to consultants working with boards as well as regulators and funders concerned about board accountability and impact. Finally, it will be of interest to faculty and students of nonprofit leadership looking for case studies that explore the complex nature of governance, the governance context in different cultures and countries, and the range of leadership roles and responsibilities boards and directors play in the organizations they govern.
