BOARD & LEADERSHIP ASSESSMENT
Drive success with the feedback you need—and model the way for growth and development for the entire organization.
GLP’s approach to assessment is systematic, customized, practical, and grounded in leadership and board development expertise. We give you the tools and the data to diagnose issues, find opportunities, improve, and make good decisions.
We can help you:
Set the standard for assessment
We partner with you to design an effective system for board and executive leadership evaluation that includes both informal feedback mechanisms and a formal evaluation process.
Questions and concerns about board or leadership performance? Partner with us to conduct third-party diagnostics and assessment to help you better understand those concerns, analyze performance, and make informed decisions for improvement.
Diagnose and decide
We know how to translate what we learn through diagnostics and assessment into a road map for what’s next.
Develop a plan of action
The Power of Assessing Your Board and Leadership Together
GLP BOARD-LEADERSHIP PARTNER ASSESSMENT SUITE
The GLP Board-Leadership Partnership Assessment Suite (all rights reserved) is a linked suite of tools to ensure effective planning, evaluation, and feedback to support both Leadership evaluation (Heads, CEOs or Executive Directors), Board assessment, as well as effective collaboration and shared purpose.
We offer these tools as a suite because we have found that when assessment processes are aligned, the board-leader partnership is strengthened, and governance deepens its understanding of institutional performance as a function of both Head and Board performance.
Frequently, our clients opt for a longitudinal approach to support the continuous development of leadership and governance year-over-year. GLP will work with you to custom design a process and cycle for ongoing evaluation to meet your needs and aims.
Each Board and/or Leadership Assessment Includes:
Articulation of goals and criteria—short-term and long-term—to be assessed, as crafted in partnership with client
Custom Assessment Survey design, administration (with client support), and data analysis
Summary report with insights and recommendations
Debrief discussion (1 hour) following submission of Summary Report

Our bespoke tools seek meaningful evidence, qualitative and quantitative feedback, and analytics that are objectively produced by a third party with extensive knowledge of high performance in schools and not-for-profits. As a neutral third party, we can observe, reflect back, and help you make sense of data while protecting confidentiality and avoiding the perilous impacts of anonymity.
At GLP, our research methodologies, instruments, and analyses are custom designed for optimal value.
Expect us to partner with you to examine what you want to learn and why, and design a positive user experience.
Know that we plan together how data will be analyzed and applied; we’ll make accurate sense of what you learn.
Be assured that we consider your unique context in order to ensure that the research process is integrated with and advances your communication and strategy needs. Feedback loops are essential in this work, so expect us to facilitate conversations with stakeholders and leadership to explore the stories behind the data and discuss how to convert new learning into action.
By focusing on the stakeholders and strategic context, in contrast to focusing solely on the survey instrument itself, GLP helps you transform qualitative research into an inclusive learning experience that benefits all stakeholders, creating conditions for deeper relationships and the culture you want.
