High-Performance Boards
The governing body of any organisation is the focal point for good corporate governance and is responsible for setting the tone and direction for the organisation, approving the strategy plan, policies, and business plan, and overseeing the implementation and execution of these plans. Small and medium enterprises tend to overlook the positive impact good governance practices can have on the performance of the organisation as they opt for basic compliance.
​
As the governing body matures and more good governance practices are enabled it can become a strategic asset. Strong and effective governing bodies can lead to:
-
Increased organisational value
-
Improved share value
-
Lower cost of capital
-
Improved operational performance
-
Lower risk of damage to reputation
-
Improved decision making
​
There is no one-size-fits-all approach to governance and it is important to consider the ownership pattern, market, financiers, growth projections, and culture of the organization to find the right balance of power.
