The Cause

The Governance Gap

 

Imbalance in corporate governance has pervaded our system. Unlike at any time in our past, failures in the structure and practices of boards and monitoring/risk management systems have allowed deep-rooted, unhealthy beliefs and norms to develop in the U.S. marketplace. These have combined to form the “perfect storm”:  an economic crisis with a deep lack of transparency and trust.

 

Boards of directors often have an inaccurate understanding of their fiduciary duties and provide inadequate oversight. Combined with often fragmented and marginalized monitoring and risk management systems, these shortcomings render the system of checks and balances ineffective. And many business leaders feel conflicted over the pressure to achieve short-term results rather than long-term, sustainable value.

 

The marketplace can return to economic health and long-term prosperity. Integrity, accountability, stewardship and transparency can be repaired.  We have customized solutions for any organization which wants to attain next generation governance and help lead the way to restored marketplace trust.
