Document background
The Executive Director Performance Review document is a critical governance tool used by New Zealand companies to formally assess and document the performance of their executive directors. It is typically conducted annually or bi-annually as part of the company's governance cycle, providing a structured framework for evaluating leadership effectiveness, strategic contribution, and operational performance. The document ensures compliance with New Zealand Companies Act 1993 and corporate governance requirements while serving as a basis for remuneration decisions and succession planning. It includes comprehensive assessment criteria, performance metrics, development goals, and recommendations for future improvement, making it essential for maintaining effective board oversight and corporate accountability.
