1.8 The effectiveness of a board chair is best evaluated by: (课后题#5)
A. engaging in direct dialogue with directors.
B. referring to a board self-assessment report.
C. assessing the quality of the directors on the board.
Correct Answer: C
The quality of the directors on the board provides an indirect but otherwise clear signal of the
chair's effectiveness, as strong board members are unlikely to stay on a board led by a weak chair.
The other evaluation approaches can be used, but they are considered less likely to provide
accurate assessments of the chair's effectiveness.
