Does ‘fit’ really matter when you’re assessing prospective board members?
A new blog post from our Affiliate Partner DirectorPrep.com examines this question in depth and concludes that fit is a critical factor for board recruitment. They write:
“Fit is a matter of board culture and group dynamics – the behaviors, relationships, attitudes, and values that characterize the board and the organization. It’s about the match between the individual’s preferences on one hand and the board’s realities on the other hand.”
In the post, they explore how boards can ensure a good fit between a candidate and the board by asking the right questions. They also offer advice for individual directors looking to join a board.
