Guberna

Guberna aims to boost good governance in all organisations

GUBERNA believes that good governance leads to better organisations and that better organisations contribute to a better world.

What is good governance?

Essentially, governance has to do with management, mastery, accountability, supervision and control. The main goals include making an organisation’s governance structures and decision-making processes more efficient, objective and transparent. Good governance is thus not an end point but rather a means to achieve the organisational strategy.
