Why Your Interest? - Our Approach ...

In our search to help Governing Bodies solve their complex problems, we carefully evaluated every single Governing Body / Board / Director Performance-Competency Assessment Framework available publicly Globally.

The reality is there are:

  • Not many available and furthermore,
  • Are not what we consider as “International in Context”, nor,
  • Global Best Practice to address the concerns of working and practising Directors behind the desk.

In addition, we also found that: 

  • They were largely outdated, not kept current, and consequently,
  • Not reflective of current business practices, best practice corporate governance, or current affairs,
  • Narrowly focused, trying to emulate a standard and not the practicalities of sitting directors.

Consequently, with our focus on solving complex problems for Governing Bodies and their Executive Leadership, utilising our creative skills, methodologies and technologies, we believed we could do better for our Governing Bodies, their Directors and Executive Leadership.

Not only have we ensured that our Service is updated with current global affairs and Global Best Practices and that we continually ensure its currency, but also that it is consistent with ISO37000:2021 on Governance and other leading relevant standards.

Simple to understand, Simple to implement and Simple to use.

Competence - What are we talking about here? ...

Competence. (the ability to)

A director’s ability (power, skill, means and or opportunity) to do something successfully and or efficiently.

Competency. (the skill needed)

A director’s capability (ability, aptitude or fitness) to apply and or use a set of related Values, Knowledge, Skills, and or Experience (Competency Profile).

Competency Profile.

A director’s Competency Profile (Values, Knowledge, Skills and Experience), particularly their Values, is the foundation of their “Ethics”. They guide the personal view of “good/bad” or “desirable/undesirable”, creating the basis for personal judgements, their personal “moral compass”, and actions.

A director’s Values drive what is individually essential and may be so ingrained as to be second nature to the director, without any conscious consideration.

Directors need to understand their Values, the impact and of their independence and self-positioning to correctly balance individual self-interest and therefore act in the organisation’s best interests.

A director’s Competency Profile impacts directly any Fundamental Principles, Core and or Functional Competencies and is essential to understanding this in doing Competency Assessments.

Please click the “Purchase Now” button opposite to Purchase this Service Offering.

Competence - Further than talking - All Performance ...

Simply, if we increase the director’s competence:

A director’s ability to do something successfully and or efficiently = We improve Performance.

Collectively, if we improve the Competence of the Governing Body = We improve Performance.

So far, not a single mention of Corporate Governance, Why?

As stressed, we are not here to “tick mark” you on a corporate governance framework.

However, it is crucial to understand the linkage.

To keep it simple, the Cadbury Committee in 1992 defined Corporate Governance as “the system by which organisations are directed and controlled” – ( … by the Governing Body/Directors).

King IV, 2016, defined Corporate Governance as “the exercise of ethical and effective leadership by the governing body towards achieving the following governance outcomes: Ethical culture; Good performance; Effective control; and Legitimacy“.

ISO37000:2021, defines the Governance of Organisations as a “human-based system by which an organisation is directed, overseen and held accountable for achieving its defined organisational purpose“.

Simply put, improving Competence in ethical and effective leadership through directing, managing and controlling, across the spectrum of what best practice directors and governing bodies have to do in practice/”sitting behind the desk”, Will lead to Best Practice Performance.

This GRC Consulting Service focuses on Director/Governing Body Competency Assessments to do this.

Please click on each of the “Toggle Indicators” or Overview Headings to display or close the relevant Sub-Sections:

Overview of the Framework’s 3 Triangles and their 9 Side Interfaces …

GRC Consulting firmly believes, that to be of true value to Governing Bodies and Directors, the Competency Framework must be as practical and oriented to working life as is possible.

It must take the perspective of the director sitting behind the desk, facing real life, having to consider and do the things that governing bodies and their directors have to do, that they have to deal with:

The external business environment to the organisation, and actively consider: the business Environment (E); the Markets (M); from international, regional, country and local perspectives; and External Stakeholders (ES).

Deciding “how best to play the game of business” for the organisation, and actively consider: Laws & Regulations (LR); the Business Norms (BN) of what is expected without laws and rules; and the best Organisational Positioning (OP).

Having decided on the best Organisational Positioning (OP), to then actively consider, implement, manage and control to achieve the best performance: How We Operate (HWO); How We Behave (HWB); and Internal Stakeholders (IS).

A director’s Values drive what is individually essential, and maybe so ingrained, as to be second nature to the director, without any conscious consideration.

A director’s foundational and internal theory, law and or rules, guiding their behaviour, perspectives and actions in what is right and wrong.

Core Competencies (C.C.):

Functional Competencies (F.C.):

A director’s Functional Competencies are the scope of those competencies defined by the duties, requirements and responsibilities (“functions”) to execute the organisation’s mandate. These are the organisation’s general functional driven requirements.

The following Section covers the GRC Consulting Competency Framework, which is in a Sectional Detail format.

Please click on each of the “Toggle Indicators” or Overview Headings to display or close the relevant Sub-Sections:

External Business Environment and External Stakeholders …

We constantly monitor and record the most important matters being considered, debated and reported on globally, such as from Davos, World Risk Institutes, Global Governance, Director Forums, Thinktanks, Leading Consultancies, News and others, tabulating the Top Issues facing Governing Bodies and their Directors.

We update our Methodology to reflect these as the top key global matters that, as Governing Bodies and Directors, we expect you to be conversant with and ensure an appropriate Spread across a PESTLE Framework and Markets.

External Stakeholders (ES):

We consider the current Best Practice Governance approach, processes and Public Reporting requirements addressing External Stakeholders.

Licence to Operate Rules – or Descriptive Rules in the organisation’s chosen area. How these provide or can be utilised to operate to the best advantage, together with the longer-term forces governing their future.

Universal Understandings Rules – or Normative Rules in the organisation’s chosen area, such as ethics, corporate governance, the environment, health, safety and social investment amount others, and how these provide or can be utilised to operate to the best advantage, together with the longer-term forces governing their future operation.

Please click the “Purchase Now” button opposite to Purchase this Service Offering.

Competency Profile Approach …

Our approach to assessing a director’s Competency Profile (Values, Knowledge, Skills and Experience) together with Fundamental Principles, Core and Functional Competencies is founded on the premise that:

A director’s Competency Profile impacts directly any Fundamental Principles, Core Competencies, and or Functional Competencies, and why the model opposite shows the Competency Profile components “circled” around the latter.

Further, with respect to the Competency Profile element of “Skills”, which we designate as “ability to use their honed expertise” / the set of honed expertise bought to the table by the director and Core Competencies, it is not practical, given that each director/business/industry/etc. may drive specialisation, to take a direct approach to “Skills” assessment, for these obvious reasons and implications to an efficient assessment. GRC Consulting focuses on “Performance” and, therefore, the consequent “director’s actions” aspect of the impact of this honed expertise. We utilise a Best Practice “Decision Framework” that governing bodies and directors may follow in conducting the governing body’s “business around the table” and taking action on requirements before the governing body to adopt a “Practical and Performance-Oriented” professional approach to these two areas.

For Functional Competency assessment, we utilise a “Best Practice Governing Body Agenda Framework”, which includes the Best Practice Elements of: what High Performing Boards execute on; and what Best Practice Corporate Governance requires; in conducting governing body business and through these “functional” elements of what agenda business is undertaken to base the assessment.

Competency Profile – Values and Experience …

Values: A director’s Values are the foundation of the director’s “Ethics”. They guide their personal view of “good/bad” or “desirable/undesirable”, creating the basis for personal judgements, their personal “moral compass”, and actions. A director’s Values drive what is individually essential, and maybe so ingrained, as to be second nature to the director, without any conscious consideration. Directors need to understand their Values, the impact and of their independence and self-positioning to correctly balance individual self-interest and therefore act in the organisation’s total best interests.

Additionally, we reflect an associated Heat Map Graphic of all Competency Items within the Category Sub-section.

  1. Special Reports:

Special Reports reflect specific areas of focus, whether combining across Category/Sub-sections, to highlight business aspects, governing body, corporate governance, standards, management or other aspects of importance.

4. Detailed Analysis Reports:

These reports summarise at an individual Competency Item level, all details pertaining to that item, including separate Evident and Effective Voting Spreads and Standard Deviations, together with a summary comparison analysis of the rating of the individual Competency Item, relative to the Average Category Statistics, the Competency Item narrative and individual Heat Map Graph.

5. Future Strategy Orientation Reports:

These reports summarise the Governing Body’s mapping, by order of Priority of the Competency Items, to the Governing Body’s understanding of the organisation’s Future Strategy requirements. For ease and simplicity, these are categorised into High Priority, Medium Priority and Low Priority for reporting.

6. Competency Hurdle Rate Reports:

These reports summarise the respective Governing Body Competency Item assessed Hurdle Rate metric for “Effective” or “Performance” element of the Competency Items, that the Governing Body deems appropriate. This Assessed Hurdle Rate is then utilised to determine respective positioning relative to the earlier submitted Competency Item metric and report accordingly on the positioning.

7. Action Plan Reports:

These reports summarise, for selected and agreed upon Competency Items, their summary headline metrics, together with the Action Plans Components developed to address each item, including assessment of: Item Options or Steps for Remediation; Improvement Cost Estimate; Improvement Effectiveness; Improvement Benefit Analysis; Responsibility for Implementation; Timetable for Implementation; Responsible for Monitoring; Control Priority; as a basis for taking appropriate action.

Silver Service – Section 2 & 3 – Future Strategy and Hurdle Rate …

Section 2 and 3: Future Strategy and Hurdle Rate

Up to this point, as explained under our Service Offerings, we reflect the “Governing Body Reports Provided“, which is the aggregated average of the respective participating directors, together with individual director reporting – “Director Reports Provided“.

Under Section 2 and 3, the Reporting includes leading the Governing Body through our Service Process, only focusing on the “Effective” or Performance” metric, to drive and result in:

  1. a re-prioritisation of the Framework Competencies as directly related to the Governing Body’s Future Strategy into High, Medium and Low Priority Items, and then subsequently, 
  2. to decide upon the respective Hurdle Rate for the Competencies under this re-prioritisation.

It is not practical to regurgitate all prior reporting provided to this point.

Consequently, we focus and additionally report only in relation to Future Strategy and Hurdle Rate. This is done for both the Governing Body and individual Directors.

This is noted on the following pages with illustrative representations of the related Reports.

Graphical Analysis

-Illustrative Summary Graph of 3 Categories.

Under Section 3, the Reporting includes leading the Governing Body through our Service Process, only focusing on the “Effective” or “Performance” metric, to drive and result in compiling a governing body average “Hurdle Rate” for each assessed Competency.

We Report consistently, by 1. Category and by 2. Sub-section.

As is evident from the graphic opposite, we can then assess the Governing Body’s Average Competency Assessment Score, compared to the above determined “Hurdle Rate”.

We are then able to illustrate, either:

1.“Gaps”/Under Skilled areas of Competency.

2.“Surplus/Over Skilled areas of Competency.

We then focus on the Gaps to take action.

– The Governing Body’s Priority across the Competencies, as organised into the Priority Categories of High, Medium and Low, is reflected by illustrative Priority Summary Graphs.

The Governing Body’s Top Hurdle Improvements, are now easily identifiable from the Graphical Analysis incorporating the Hurdle Rate. Conceptually, we are after the material improvement gaps. This “approach” is reflected by those Competencies in the table with “Red Arrows” below:

A Governing Body’s Hurdle Improvement is where:

=> Governing Body Aggregated Average falls below the determined Hurdle Rate.

Also => Competency Gap/Under-skilled.
