Abstract
Running throughout this book is the theme that governance adds real value to an organisation and that for it to be effective the standards laid down must be practised in spirit and be part of the ethos of the body concerned. All senior managers, including directors, need to have standards that are compatible with the values of the company and be satisfied that their own reputation is enhanced rather than diminished in their work setting. Professional managers, especially at senior levels, have as their most important asset their reputation which must be protected by holding appropriate ethical and professional values.
