The Boards' Tearoom: Board Evaluation That Improves Performance
The Royal Automobile Club, London
June 24, 2026

Impact Boards EM hosted the next exclusive Boards' Tearoom networking event for our Directors' Circle and Chairs' Circle members.
Board evaluations should not feel like a compliance formality. When approached thoughtfully, they can become one of the most constructive conversations a board has – strengthening trust, clarifying expectations and improving performance in a very tangible way.
We reflected on questions such as:
How can a board evaluation genuinely enhance performance rather than simply fulfil a requirement?
What should directors pay attention to when reviewing board composition, skills and dynamics?
How can sensitive findings be handled constructively?
How do we ensure that evaluation outcomes translate into action?
The event was moderated by Impact Board EM's Co-Founder and Chair, Olga Pascault, who was joined by speaker Oleg Shvyrkov.
This event took place in the The Clubroom at the Royal Automobile Club on Wednesday 24 June 2026.
