Annual ‘self-assessment’ undertaken by your Board (Jan 23)

The Board self-assessment is based on the Not-for-profit Governance Principles developed by the Australian Institute of Company Directors (AICD) as an element of their support for not for-profits and their boards to achieve good governance.

These Principles seek to go beyond what may be considered a minimum standard of governance and aim to encourage organisations to strive for and achieve good governance. The Principles are not intended to be prescriptive, but to act as a guide and are complementary to, and building on, the Australian Charities and Not-for-profits Commission Governance Standards. Thus, in accordance with the AICD encouragement for NFPs to consider assessing governance practices against these principles and reporting on this to members and stakeholders, the results of the 2023 ADIESA Board self-assessment are provided for ADIESA members.

The results of this self-assessment were considered in the Board’s annual strategic planning activity at the end of Jan 23. ADIESA members are welcome to review and comment.

Survey of ADIESA members (Feb 23)

The Feb 23 ADIESA members survey seeks feedback/assessment on the Board’s performance in delivering the ADIESA mission (on behalf of the members) and seeks comment on preparation for the DSR release.

The results of this members survey are under consideration by the Board and for action out of the Apr 23 Board Meeting. ADIESA members are welcome to review and comment further.
