Abstract

Group effectiveness is a topic of ongoing interest in the management field. How effective organizations operate, ranging from small teams to large corporations, is a field of inquiry that is virtually endless in its theories and case examinations. Within this broad field of research, we have homed in on the boards responsible for the management of large pools of financial assets. The record of effectiveness of these groups is mixed. What is it about these groups, and the individuals that comprise them, that can drive such wide-ranging results? The answer lies in how these groups organize (governance structure), the people that reside on the boards and committees of these organizations (human factors), and how they interact with each other and the consultants, other service providers, and the money managers with whom they work (group processes).
For governance improvement, there are a number of instruments in the market to perform board self-assessments. Once a board goes through a baseline evaluation a board can then engage in a deeper self-assessment with board members and senior staff that reviews additional topics, which, using other board self-assessment tools, can include further analysis of board structure, board and organizational culture, board responsibilities, and board process. Making board governance assessment a standing item for annual review helps the organization identify areas for training and development and track improvements over time, and allows the setting of new goals for the coming year.
