Board Self Assessment
An undisciplined board undermines the accountability of the CEO. Not following your policies is an issue of organizational integrity. How can you expect the CEO to follow policy if the Board doesn't?
The importance of the board following its own policies cannot be over emphasized. Policy Governance boards use a systematic self-assessment process to keep themselves on track and in integrity with its policies. Board self-assessment is a continuous improvement process to help the board recognize when it is not in integrity with its own policies.
