What's driving this score

What would change this score

The two changes that would most improve this score:

  1. Reduce top-officer compensation from 76.8% to under 22% of revenue — would move governance score by ~40 points.
  2. Separate signing authority from fundraising authority when both are held by one person — removes the concentration penalty (~12 points).

Improving governance is a board decision. These are the levers.
