Cross-Border Governance Risk Diagnostic
A four-week diagnostic and board session to clarify how authority, accountability and information flow across entities and jurisdictions, and where governance risk fails to reach the board. Built around Dr Mimi Ajibadé’s Cross-Border Governance Risk (CBGR) framework.
Board Effectiveness & Succession Diagnostic
A two- to four-week diagnostic of how the board and its committees are composed, informed and renewed: a desktop review, extended with board and committee interviews where needed. It identifies where oversight, continuity and decision quality need strengthening.
