The Board Advisory Diagnostic

What does your board actually need?

Five questions about your stage, structure and priorities. The diagnostic scores every MAXFR engagement against your answers and writes you a short advisory paper — recommendation, rationale and first ninety days.

Item 01 — The business

Where is the business today?

Approximate annual revenue is fine — it sets the scale of what governance should look like.

Item 02 — The board

What does the board look like now?

Be honest — most growing businesses sit in the first two answers.

Item 03 — The sharp end

What's the sharpest challenge right now?

Pick the one that keeps coming back — the diagnostic weighs this most heavily.

Item 04 — Twelve months out

What must the next year deliver?

Choose up to two. Selecting a third swaps out your earliest pick.

Item 05 — The shape of support

What kind of support feels right?

Your instinct counts — but if you're unsure, say so and let the answers decide.

A note on honesty. Five questions can't capture a real business — this paper is a structured starting point, scored transparently from your answers, not a verdict. The fastest way to test it is a thirty-minute conversation, free and without obligation.
