The Inaugural
Zimbabwe National
Code of Governance
Conference:
Strategy,
Implementation & Compliance
Conference Overview:
Global awareness and the adaptation
and implementation of good governance
has a significant impact on the way
companies are perceived to be conducting their
business. Research has proven that investors will
pay a premium for shares in companies that has
sound governance frameworks in place. Good corporate
governance goes beyond the conduct and responsibility of
the board and directors, but focuses on the alignment of
people, processes and technology. Understandably, businesses
in Zimbabwe are undergoing a transformation process that will
affect the way we do business within the global economy. The recent
launch of the National Code of Governance in Zimbabwe looks to address
regulatory reformation in organisations. Effective strategic implementation
management and compliance is the first step towards establishing better
governance within an organisation to understand the potential risks faced by the
organisation. A chain is only as strong as the weakest link – businesses today are
complex and intricately interwoven through people, products, technology,
communicationandinfrastructure.
BizStrat’s Inaugural Code of Governance Conference seeks to empower delegates and
organisations to better understand the Code and also the ability to strategically implement
