The Corporate Governance Companion
Complexity simplified.
A practical guide for executives, directors, professionals and founders who want to understand corporate governance, strengthen decision-making, and build organisations with clearer accountability, ethics and oversight.
About the book
Corporate governance is often presented as a thicket of codes and compliance. The Companion cuts through it. It explains what governance is for, who is responsible for what, and how to build an organisation with clear accountability, sound ethics and effective oversight, in plain language and with practical examples.
Who it is for
- Directors and board members, new and experienced
- Executives and managers who work with a board
- Founders preparing their business for investors or growth
- Professionals in governance, risk, compliance and company secretarial roles
- Students of business, law and public administration
