When board relationships become performative rather than productive

Our board meetings have become these carefully choreographed performances where we present everything as 'on track' and they ask polite questions and everyone leaves feeling like we've done our job but nobody talks about the actual hard stuff. We're all complicit in this theater and I think it's making us worse at running the company.
