This executive director evaluation form is designed for boards, HR teams, and leadership committees that need a clear way to collect feedback from staff or stakeholders. It focuses on overall performance, understanding of staff needs, ability to move the organization forward, and awareness of the broader social and cultural context behind key decisions.
The template uses a practical mix of rating scales, agreement questions, and written responses. That structure makes it easy to capture measurable feedback while still leaving room for specific examples about where the executive director excels and where additional support or improvement may be needed.
Like a course evaluation form, this template works well because it pairs consistent scoring with open-ended comments, making trends easier to spot across responses. You can use it as part of an annual review, a board-led assessment, or a broader leadership feedback process that needs balanced, actionable input.
