ABSTRACT

This is the most difficult part of an analysis of corporate governance, and the least discussed. What does it make companies do differently? So difficult is this relationship to disentangle, indeed, that:

Enterprise Governance is an emerging term that CIMA and others use to describe a framework that covers both the corporate governance and the business management aspects of the organisation. Achieving a panacea of good corporate governance that is linked strategically with performance metrics should enable companies to focus all their energies on the key drivers that move their business forward. . . . Enterprise governance considers the whole picture to ensure that strategic goals are aligned and good management is achieved.’1
