Course Overview Enterprise governance of any organisation depends on establishing a well defined and clear set of Policies and Procedures (P&P). Whether starting from an existing set of Policies and Procedures or developing a completely new set, it is important to understand what makes the policies and procedures successful. Success depends on knowing what the business needs and defining a set of Policies and Procedures that meets that need. This course brings together two key perspectives of policies and procedures. The first perspective is achieving an understanding of how to determine what is needed. The second key perspective is knowing how to convert the needs into an active and viable set of Policies and Procedures. Key techniques used: • Policies and Procedures assessments • Aligning P&P with the needs • Measuring performance of P&P • Identifying best practice • Identifying the relationship of policies, procedures and processes Effective and efficient execution of processes in the organisation depends on the proper application of the Policies and Procedures. This makes communication of P&P and compliance with procedures today an important consideration.
