Designed for those on the journey to becoming a Chartered Governance Professional, our Corporate Governance study text provides the knowledge and skills necessary for a company secretary or governance professional to act as chief adviser to the board and other stakeholders and as the facilitator for systematic application of good governance practices.

It covers the general principles of governance both within the UK and internationally and discusses a variety of subjects surrounding the board such as roles and responsibilities, conflicts of interests, performance evaluation and risk management. Accountability and social responsibility are covered along with how to manage relations with shareholders and the remuneration of senior staff.
