Governance Manager

Governance has always been a feature of sound business management, however it is only in the past dozen years that the complexity of business has required recognizing these practices as a separate discipline. Investors, regulators and employees all demand good governance from today’s businesses. The contemporary business environment is complex and dynamic. Governance plays a key role in ensuring that all of the appropriate mechanisms are in place to maximise the chances of success whilst minimising the risks associated with doing business.

Governance Manager is web based tool that can be deployed by Governments seeking to raise public sector management standards, corporate regulators seeking to raise standards across the sector, individual companies seeking to improve internal governance controls, and aid agencies responsible for distributing funds to recipient Government or corporate clients.

Governance Manager provides the ability to benchmark and report on the maturity of an organisations governance capability against a framework, standard, process or philosophy. The underlying principle is ‘knowing what you need to do; knowing you are doing it; measuring the success of what you are doing; and then telling the right people about it’. Whilst simple in concept, Governance Manager represents a powerful tool for organisational development, enabling informed management decisions and bolstering competitive advantage.
