Many volunteer board members step into governance roles because they care about their community — not because they’ve had formal training in governance, compliance, or financial oversight.
This 12-session series is designed to support volunteer board members to feel more confident, capable, and clear in their role.
Building Governance Confidence is a practical, discussion-based programme that strengthens governance capability while reducing risk for both individuals and organisations.
Session 10: Monitoring Organisational Performance
Boards need more than good intentions — they need good information. This session explores how boards and committees can effectively track progress and performance, so they can stay focused on what matters most and make informed decisions.
We’ll look at what to measure, how often to measure it, and how to avoid getting lost in too much detail. Participants will gain a better understanding of how reporting can support strong governance when it is linked clearly back to the organisation’s purpose, priorities, and strategic direction.
We’ll also explore how to know when to ask questions — and when not to — so boards can provide meaningful oversight without drifting into micromanagement. A practical session for board and committee members wanting to strengthen accountability, sharpen their focus, and use reporting more effectively.
