Promoting Governance - The Corporate Gatekeeper's Role

Corporate governance has been transformed from simply a routine set of compliance requirements to a strategic business imperative. The integrity, reliability, and transparency of financial reports are a function of corporate governance effectiveness. Effective and sound corporate governance measures and practices have become a mandate for both public and private firms regardless of their size, type, or location. No longer is corporate governance just seen as one of the many compliance requirements.

In this course, you will understand that corporate gatekeepers are the focal point of these efforts and the conduits of company information to shareholders, management, customers, suppliers, financiers, government, and the community.

You know how the COVID-19 pandemic has had tremendous implications for people and organizations. This course presents an insight into the COVID-19 crisis and its impacts on organizational behavior and corporate governance norms and measures. The challenges imposed by the COVID-19 pandemic and related changes affect all aspects of business organizations from the oversight function by the board of directors to the managerial function by executives and audit function by auditors.

By the end of this course, you will have gained a complete understanding of all the corporate governance requirements and how they affect their actions on the job.
