Tailored Board Performance Reviews
We conduct independent, in-depth board reviews designed to improve effectiveness, enhance leadership dynamics, and strengthen governance practices.
Every review is tailored to your board’s unique structure, challenges, and regulatory context — using a combination of interviews, observations, surveys, and behavioural diagnostics to uncover what’s working, what’s holding the board back, and where real value can be unlocked.

- Combines quantitative and qualitative insight to deliver a clear picture
- Highlights behavioural, structural, and strategic improvement opportunities
- Suitable for listed, regulated, and complex group structures
- Aligned with UK Corporate Governance Code and global best practice

Our Clients Feedback
Discover how our expertise in Board Dynamics has transformed the impact of boards, across various industries and sectors
"Sharon's sound knowledge of the UK regulatory, FCA and PRA environments provided valuable insights we had not expected & the Genius approach in this regard has un-derpinned changes in structure & particularly culture in the Board room.”
Tier 1 Building Society
Chairman“The directors all agreed it had been a valuable exercise & were very pleased with how it all went and we had a discussion in the board meeting about how the issues raised & the recommendations will be taken forward."
Aviation Industry
Company Secretary“Genius has empowered us to look at governance structures & Director behaviours in a way we had not before. The Board and Executive have fully embraced & fully own the required changes and are already, in these early days, adapting their Board engagement and behaviour.”
Government Subsidiary
Chairman“We chose Genius Boards as we needed a robust exercise that addressed the complex dynamics of our Board, Directors & culture.”
Global Insurance
Company Secretary“Sharon is able to “see” risks & issues that we were not aware of & provide practical ways to address, mitigate, improve and deliver effective outcomes.”
Premium Brand FMCG
CEO“Each step seems so innocuous & innocent, but together has made such a difference; the Board is talking & addressing the strategic debate constructively.”
FTSE350 Investment Trust
Chairman“It baffles me how Sharon could determine the issues we could not see & provide such practical solutions that made such imminent sense — why could we not have achieved such insight?”
Health Insurance
Risk Committee Chair“A very difficult project handled professionally & bravely, thank you… A better outcome than we could possibly have expected.”
FTSE350 Global Conference Management
Chairman“I am not sure what Sharon said to the Chairman, but he is different, he has become “human” when we didn’t think it that was possible.”
Global Holding Company
Company Secretary"Sharon pinpointed ineffective behaviours in certain Directors, mentoring them for improvement. She collaborated effectively with government stakeholders, ensuring their involvement was supportive & implemented a 10-year succession plan, Board Committee plan, & Skills & Experience Assessment, enriching the Board Evaluation."
Multi-Government Financial Provider
Chairman"Sharon grasped our regulatory landscape, pinpointing crucial concerns for every Committee & the overall Boards. As Chair, she aided me & the Company Secretary in navigating challenging issues promptly. Her guidance addressed tough, previously unaddressed issues, providing a clear strategy to manage them while minimising risks."
