Corporate Governance Policies & Practices Mastery
Program Overview
Senior governance practitioners must move beyond compliance checklists to design governance systems that genuinely improve decision quality, accountability and long-term value. This advanced programme examines governance architecture in depth: the policy framework that operationalises a governance code, delegation of authority, board effectiveness and evaluation, risk and compliance governance, ESG oversight, group and subsidiary governance, and the specific governance models of family businesses and government-related entities in the Gulf. Participants benchmark practices against the G20/OECD Principles and regional capital market regulations and complete an applied governance research and reform proposal.
Learning Outcomes
- ✓Design an integrated governance policy framework linking the governance code to board charters, committee terms of reference and management policies.
- ✓Develop a delegation of authority matrix that balances control with operational agility.
- ✓Evaluate board effectiveness using structured board evaluation methods and recommend development actions.
- ✓Formulate governance arrangements for risk, compliance and ESG oversight at board level.
