Governance
What is (Corporate) Governance?
Governance comes from the Latin word gubernare meaning "to steer". Good governance is continuously steering it towards a vision and making sure that day-to-day management is always lined up with the organisation's goals. It ensures that the organisation remains viable and thrives. At its core, governance is about leadership.
How do we achieve good governance in our organisation?
Critical questions that need to be addressed by any organisation wishing to achieve good governance include:
- How well defined are our company processes?
- How visible are these processes?
- Do we just address the whats or do we address the whys, whos, whens, wheres and with whats that help to clarify all aspects of our processes?
- How do we support continual review and improvement of our processes?
- Do we have an efficient process and knowledge management system in place to support the above activities?
