Organisation types and research themes

Governance has always been a dynamic concept. With the exponential transformations in society today, good governance is needed more than ever. 

The board of directors has to make collegial decisions with open dialogue, constructive and critically challenging one another and independent thinking. In practice, groups decisions and interactions are of stimulated by (irrational) individual beliefs that lead to sub-optimal decisions as a result.

Why is the investment in innovation so important for organisations and how does your board of directors deal with this? In which way does this influence the traditional role of your board of directors?

The basic principles of good governance are laid down in the code of conduct. The codes for good governance are a form of self-regulation, also called soft law, and are in addition to the current European and national laws (hard law).
