"At Governance Institute of Australia our purpose is to champion whole or organisation governance and risk management through education, advocacy and engagement with members and the broader community. Governance Institute is delighted to have had the opportunity to provide input and feedback on this amazing health check tool for charities. Boards should be looking to review their performance and their practices on an annual basis and this comes with a cost of time and resources. To have a complimentary tool available to aid how charities govern their own entities means more time and resources can be directed into their own purpose and by extension better outcomes for society.” Leon Cox, GM Membership and Engagement, GIA |

"As a social enterprise, we found the Board Health Check Tool was a really great way to efficiently capture feedback from our Board members on "where we were at" with our governance.

This resulted in us updating our governance processes, revising our board terms, revisiting our boards skill matrix and setting up new working groups to focus on core strategic areas.” Rob Haggett, Pocket City Farms Board Member, Pocket City Farms |
