GovernanceExcellence: 30 Questions about the Evolution of Governance
Evolution of Governance: In parallel with the discussions on the regulations and best practices which define Governance is an equally important set of discussions about the consequent organizational implications. An organization seeking to optimize its performance in Governance faces scope, role, responsibility and reporting issues of increasing complexity for how Governance activities are effectively managed.
The Evolution of Governance Module provides 30 questions which will help an organization examine its practices in these areas, to help build consensus within the organization of what practices might be and to benchmark the organization against other similar organizations. It is partly based on ideas discussed in the Discussion Paper on "The Evolution of Governance: A Scenario for Best Practices in 21st Century Governance".
