You're Invited

Join us on October 23, 2025, at 2 PM ET for an exclusive OnBoard ATLAS Leadership Series webinar, where we’ll unpack the most important findings from the newly released 2025 Board Effectiveness Survey. Now in its fifth year, this industry-leading study draws on insights from more than 500 board professionals across sectors to reveal how boards are adapting to evolving pressures, advancing collaboration, and beginning to integrate AI into their governance practices. 

Hosted by Josh Palmer, Head of Content and Research at OnBoard, this session will give you a first look at the latest data and what it signals for board leadership heading into 2026. From the rebound in board security confidence to persistent concerns about ineffective directors and meeting preparation, you’ll gain a data-backed perspective on where boards are progressing, where risk remains, and how governance leaders see the greatest opportunities to improve.
