Governance
The most common definition of Governance is “the system by which entities are directed and controlled. It is concerned with structure and processes for decision making, accountability, control, and behaviour at the top of an entity. Governance influences how an organisation’s objectives are set and achieved, how risk is monitored and addressed and how performance is optimised”. Governance is a management system and a set of process, not a single activity and therefore successful implementation of a good governance strategy requires a systematic approach that incorporates strategic planning, risk management and performance management.
Risk Management
Every organisation faces risk, regardless of its size, location, turnover, or sector. Risk management is a systematic process of identifying, assessing, and controlling threats to an organisation. Risks can originate from a variety of sources, including financial uncertainties, legal liabilities, technology issues, strategic management errors, accidents, natural disasters and reputational damage etc.

Why should it be considered?
An effective risk management program helps an organisation to identify and evaluate the full range of risks that it may face. This may include ISO 31000, the standard can help organisations increase the likelihood of achieving objectives, improve the identification of opportunities and threats and effectively allocate and use resources for risk treatment.
This holistic approach to managing risk is sometimes described as enterprise risk management because of its emphasis on anticipating and understanding risk across an organisation.
In addition to a focus on internal and external threats, enterprise risk management (ERM) also considers the opportunities associated with positive risks. In other words, those risks which can be turned from something with the potential to damage an organisation into one that the organisation can take advantage of and gain from e.g. acquisition of a competitor.
What impact will it have?
Improved profitability:
Those organisations with effective and resilient governance and risk management controls tend to be more profitable, given the fact they are more vigilant when it comes to risk and more effective at managing and mitigating those risks.
Satisfy tender selection criteria and win new business:
Many organisations are acutely aware of the risks associated with supply chain failure. To more effectively manage this risk increased scrutiny is being applied to supply chain risk and this will often involve an evaluation of how effectively your organisation manages risks and an evaluation of what governance controls your organisation has in place
Better Focus:
Understanding your organisational risks and managing these in a more proactive and focused manner will enhance the likelihood of achieving your strategic aims and objectives.
