Board Effectiveness

The heart of every board is its people.

A signature feature of Dolus’ Board Effectiveness and Governance practice is our dual approach to directors’ work on the board and the work of the board.

We’re experts in helping boards understand and address the impactful human dimensions of directors’ attitudes, behaviors, and working relationships and dynamics.
