Business Integrated Governance
…(BIG) describes an integrated approach to operating decision making from business purpose to strategy, and into the organisation.
BIG involves integrating governance principles into all aspects of an organisation’s operations and decision-making processes – including Strategy, Business-as-Usual, Value Creation and Change.
Background
The BIG initiative began in 2018 and has garnered contributions from more than a hundred professionals across strategy, governance, change management, IT, finance, and project management.
Our outputs are accessible to the members in the website via the BIG Body of Knowledge which assists senior sponsors and change programmes to enhance organisational performance and agility by addressing key challenges in strategy delivery.
A simplified version is also available to public in the BIG CIC Knowledge Outline and video content can be found in our YouTube channel.
The BIG Community Interest Company (CIC) now has over a thousand CIC Members, helpers, LinkedIn Group members and friends. The BIG CIC now also has a Community Forum to enable collaboration, networking and threaded discussion.
The website also provides links to Exams and Exam Passes, an introduction to Partnering (commercial partners, sponsorship / Founding Sponsors and donors), more about the BIG CIC and lastly – it provides the means to enable supporters and beneficiaries to make a small donation to enable the CIC to continue to develop and operate.
