Common Governance Frameworks

Common Governance Frameworks are structured sets of guidelines and practices that organizations use to ensure effective decision-making, accountability, and management of resources. They provide a clear foundation for how an organization is directed, controlled, and operated, aligning activities with goals, legal requirements, and stakeholder interests. These frameworks help maintain transparency, manage risks, and promote ethical behavior, ensuring that all parts of the organization work cohesively and responsibly. Examples include COBIT for IT management, ISO standards for quality, and corporate governance codes, each tailored to improve organizational integrity and performance.
