Problem: Crisis EvaluationsProblem
• Board only evaluates when a majority of members think there are serious problems
Solution
• Establish regular cycle (quarterly, annually ) for evaluating the manager and assessing board performance
![Page 25: ABC Board Member Responsibilities](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062520/56816252550346895dd29b1a/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Problem: Unclear Expectations Problem
Board members disagree about what they expect as well as whether expectations have been met
Solution
Clarify expectations in advance and establish clear standards for determining whether expectations have been met

Problem: Wrong ToolProblem
