Board Consummating Checklist

Ax Cobb brings the specialized expertise required to guide organizations through the complex transitions from executive search consulting to board advisory work.

Board meeting and advisory process

Our process typically begins with a diagnostic assessment of the organization's projected board needs, supported by a thorough review of existing directors and an evaluation of the board's overall composition, with cultural alignment serving as a guiding principle.

From there, Ax Cobb moves through a coordinated series of steps that includes identifying innovative board prospects, gauging their interest in serving, and aligning their backgrounds with the qualifications required for the role. We also evaluate how each candidate might interact within the existing board dynamic before advancing qualified individuals into curated talent pools.

Informal introductions are then arranged, followed by the collection of board feedback, the coordination of formal interviews, and a refinement of the candidate slate to highlight those best suited for the organization's long-term direction. The process concludes with the formal appointment of distinguished candidates to the board.
