Are You Board Ready?
The Board Ready Index measures 10 dimensions of non-executive director readiness — governance foundations, strategic contribution, and board craft — through short scenario-based dilemmas. Find out where you stand before you pursue your first seat.
13 Dimensions. One Leadership Profile.
A high-resolution map of your ethical AI governance capability — across three clusters that define board-level leadership.
Governance Ethics Foundation
How you navigate right and wrong in the boardroom — when decisions affect stakeholders, shareholder value, and organisational integrity.
Strategic Judgment Under Uncertainty
How you think when AI complexity, incomplete information, and competing priorities demand clear-headed governance.
Boardroom Influence & Innovation
How you shape board dynamics, challenge consensus, and find novel approaches to unprecedented AI governance challenges.
Why take this assessment?
The decisions you make in the boardroom shape companies. Do you know how you make them?
Understand your decision-making pattern
Every director defaults to a pattern under pressure. We measure how you actually decide across 13 dimensions of ethical, cognitive and relational capability — so you can play to your strengths and compensate for your weaker edges.
Surface your blind spots — before they surface you
Our scenarios are designed to trigger the governance failures that have actually happened at real boards. We show you the ones you're most likely to miss.
See the values behind your judgement
Two directors can reach the same decision for entirely different reasons. We make those reasons visible — to you, and (if you choose) to your Chair.
Contribute to a better board
When every director on your board takes the test, the Chair gets an aggregate view of where the board is balanced and where it's concentrated. You're not just improving yourself — you're improving the table.
Not a survey. A governance simulation.
You enter a boardroom scenario.
No multiple choice. No Likert scales. You face realistic AI governance dilemmas — a vendor with bias issues, a data breach before earnings, a colleague silencing ethical concerns.
Scenarios designed specifically for board-level ethical AI decision-making.
You make a governance decision.
Free-text responses analysed by AI that understands context, nuance, and contradiction. Not what you say you'd do in a governance review — what you actually do when the pressure hits.
Your response is compared against patterns from other board members.
We reveal patterns you can't see yourself.
Your profile reveals the gap between how you perceive your governance approach and how you actually show up. Where you're strong, where you're inconsistent, and where your blind spots lie.
Self-prediction vs. actual scores. The gap is the governance insight.
You develop — with evidence.
Understand your ethical AI governance profile. See how your approach compares to peers. Identify specific areas for board-level professional development.
