Why Choose Bvalco?

Bvalco Board Performance Reviews are different. We understand the delicate balance between the informal dynamics within boardrooms and the formalities of corporate governance. Our unique expertise lies at the intersection of these realms, enabling us to help our clients to optimise both. At the heart of our approach is a forward-looking mindset, asking: What can boards do better or differently to maximise their value to the business?

 

Our clients consistently commend us for striking the balance between being engaging and straight-talking and for focussing on a small number of impactful recommendations. They confirm that our reviews have a positive and tangible impact on board effectiveness.

"An excellent review. Impactful, productive and a really positive learning exercise. It exceeded our best expectations."

Our Board Performance Reviews Are Different

Our approach to Board Performance Reviews is to recognise that there’s no point looking back over what you’ve done, when it’s how well you’re going to do in future that really matters.


This requires recognising that the board isn’t just governed by the formal roles, processes and strategies in place, but is also a social entity whose decisions are as much influenced by the informal culture, values and beliefs at play.
