What is Good Governance?
Is it more than just a term that separates ineffective organisations from those that are operated according to best practice? What does Good Governance mean to organisations below the corporate, government or local authority level? How can the principles of Good Governance be applied to owner managed businesses without adding a level of administrative complexity that is counterproductive?
Good Governance is not only a prudent way to operate – but it is also your obligation as a director.
On 22 September, the Business Owners Forum will feature a panel discussion on the issues around Good Governance for owner managed businesses – from three diverse points of view.
The panel will include Rebecca Brennan. Rebecca’s a Chartered Accountant, a director of Elevate CA Limited – and she serves on the advisory board of several of her clients. Rebecca will discuss what good governance means and she will share some strategies on how to rise above “compliance” in your business without creating unnecessary bureaucratic processes. Also on the panel will be a business owner who will discuss the journey towards good governance – and a lawyer who will discuss the legal aspects of good governance.
This event will be held at Elevate CA, 35 Robert Street, Whangarei from 5:30pm on 22 September.
As always, Business Owners Forum events are free of charge to attend. Just email Gemma Mitchell at gemma@elevateCA.co.nz before the end of 20 September to reserve your seat. And if you’d like to be included on the invite list, just enter your details in the boxes to the right.
