Webinar

The governance loop that decides whether your strategy survives

Good governance is a loop and not a straight line. Good strategy creates clarity, and good governance ensures it delivers. Once the strategy is developed the ambition is clear. However, ambition is not execution. Strategic delivery is not a technical function. It is a leadership function. In this 60 minutes webinar Özge İskit shows where the loop between decision, delivery and evidence breaks, and why it breaks in the same places whether you run a boardroom or a ministry.
