About BoardSense - the Company

Tony Hassed founded Cranswick Advisory Ltd in 1997, the name being drawn from a very pleasant wine Tony was drinking at that time.

The company name was changed to BoardSense Ltd in 2004 in recognition of the emphasis Tony places on sensible, practical governance.

Tony is passionate about governance being simple but effective. Having been a Chief Executive himself, and having worked with over 100 Chief Executives as a consultant, Tony knows how to get the balance right. When the Chair and Board of Directors get the governance right, the Chief Executive is effective and the organisation delivers on its purpose.

Tony also brings you his governance experience of having served on over thirty boards, including being the Chair of twelve. As a consultant to over 500 Boards he is experienced in taking the best current governance practices and packaging them in an easy to implement form.


Boardsense has been engaged in providing a wide range of services to boards and chief executives.

Services provided have included:
  • governance workshops
  • strategic thinking sessions
  • board restructuring
  • board performance reviews
