CEO Evaluation
Take your business to the next level with our comprehensive CEO evaluation and assessment that actively benchmarks CEO performance over time. Includes CEO assessment tool, performance review and appraisal template.
Our expertise
First-to-market CEO performance evaluation and assessment
KeyStone CEO 360 measures CEO performance on behalf of boards, objectively measuring CEO effectiveness in line with your organisation’s vision and culture. We don’t offer recruitment services, making us free from any conflict of interest. And we don’t evaluate the performance of an organisation we provide financial advice too. We’re completely independent.
Our process
Confidential, repeatable CEO performance review that gets results.
KeyStone CEO 360° is a best-practice CEO evaluation and assessment process involving the board, direct reports and essential stakeholders. Choices range from a CEO self-assessment to a full 360° evaluation. For optimal outcomes, we recommend involving your Chair, Directors, CEO and executive leadership in this full 360° CEO review.
The CEO Evaluation process typically runs for four weeks, but that timeline can be reduced to two if everyone involved is completely engaged, responsive and available. The CEO evaluation process must be of paramount importance to the management team.
STEP ONE
An initial conversation acts as the basis for determining objectives and CEO evaluation criteria, and clarifies CEO performance goals.
STEP TWO
Our customised surveys measure the skills, knowledge and abilities of the CEO. Our CEO assessment tools analyse a wide range of performance criteria including strategic planning, leadership, financial performance, management of operations, management development, succession planning, human resources, communications, brand and reputation management and interpersonal relations.
In the comprehensive 360° multi-participant form, participants are asked to anonymously and confidentially rate their CEO’s performance in each area.
STEP THREE
We present our findings, highlight potential areas for performance improvement and personal development. We identify any differences between the views of the CEO and the other participants.
Our Goal
A CEO in sync with your company values and strategy
We provide you with a comprehensive report containing both feedback and analysis of our findings. Your board can utilise this data for agreed development opportunities for the CEO. By performing KeyStone CEO 360° assessments regularly, you can track any improvement in CEO effectiveness over time – which can help ensure alignment to your company values and strategy.
