“I was very pleased with the process as was the Board. The broad nature of the assessment coupled with more direct questions was a positive. Individual interviews also added to the process and I didn’t detect a bias towards certain comments from you as the reviewer - which I have seen in some other Board reviews. Overall a high quality experience.”
