What are the elements of organisation
governance?
Here are definitions of the various aspects explored when an organisation,
or a unit within an organisation is established / restructured:
Mission - the key purpose of the organisation
- what it exists to do. This is often expressed as a short statement
- any organisation should be clearly focused.
Vision - the ways in which the organisation intends
to develop in future - how it will improve its performance and/or
how it intends to transform itself. This is often expressed at a
large level of detail and developed after much analysis.
Values - a set of principles that govern the way
the organisation works, or wishes to work. Often expressed in relation
to the internal environment and the customer environment.
Goals - key things that need to be achieved in
order that the organisation changes and improves in line with its
Vision.
Strategy - what needs to be done and when, in
order that the key Goals of the organisation are met.
Plans - who needs to do what, how , when and where,
in order to translate the Strategy into action and objectives for
all staff.
