Governance vs Authority

All Process, No Decisions?

Answer these five questions to assess whether governance is proliferating without providing corresponding authority.

Has your organisation added review committees, sign-off requirements, or approval steps in the past 3 years without removing any?

Can you identify a single person who has the authority to approve a significant initiative without requiring additional sign-offs?

Do governance processes take longer to complete than the problems they're meant to address?

When initiatives fail to launch, is the typical response to add more oversight rather than streamline authority?

Do staff describe the organisation as 'bureaucratic' or complain about the difficulty of getting things approved?
