Non-Executive Director Research Results 2022

This Research, conducted at our NED Forum, provides a fascinating insight into the challenges Boards, Chairs and Non-executives are facing around leadership capability, ESG and improving the quality of strategic debate at the top table. 

Key findings from Criticaleye's NED Research:

  • NEDs are seeking inspiration and fresh thinking from other sectors
  • 67% say there is full alignment between the Chair, CEO and CFO on strategy 
  • Almost half (49%) of Boards don't benchmark strategy externally 
  • 41% of NEDs expect their next CEO to be an internal appointment
  • Measurement, analytics and performance is the biggest sustainability challenge 
  • Leadership capability is a top priority for Boards
