Governance

“Governance operates as the assurance control mechanism for an Enterprise Resilience platform through good management practice, leadership and accountability”

Governance represents the top-down accountability, decision-making and oversight apparatus in an Enterprise Resilience platform. Governance practices permeate each organisational tier of an enterprise through embedding controls within all risk management and compliance operations.

Governance apparatus of an Enterprise Resilience platform involves:

• Providing leadership and direction
• Determining the executive oversight framework
• Implementing an assurance control system
• Monitoring and reporting on business practice performance

Governance provides the leadership and accountability foundation necessary to operate an Enterprise Resilience platform. Although seamlessly embedded throughout an organisation through inherent and formal control mechanisms, Governance ensures the continual direction and sustainability of good practice risk management and compliance.
