Why Governance matters
Successful organizations know that companies that follow well-accepted principles of “good governance” have less risk and generate greater long term value for their shareholders than comparable companies with less robust governance practices.
“Governance” includes how the board is structured and how it operates, the board’s approach to executive compensation and shareholder engagement and the board’s oversight of the company’s risk management policies, including its environmental and social risks.
Established in 2013, Clear Governance provides governance consulting services to boards and senior executives of small and medium size public companies. Principal Consultant, Jacqueline Connors offers deep knowledge together with practical experience in implementing governance protocols.
