A timely guide for companies needing to grow equity and human capital after the recent economic turmoil. Written for leaders and students of for-profit, non-profit, political, and social organizations who are looking for a way to do their work more effectively.
 
Most organizational leaders only partially understand the factors that affect the amount of value created by the activities of their organization and thus greatly under-deliver on the potential to achieve their objectives and serve their target audiences.
 
Governance Reimagined has been written to fill in the missing pieces of this puzzle. It will help put your organization on the path toward re-governing, or redesigning how it works, to unlock its hidden value. Page by page, it will show you how to generate new and better processes and improve the value of those processes by altering the external perception of their risk.
* Addresses various issues that affect corporate value, from management and systems theory to governance science, risk management, and traditional finance
* Reveals how to recognize internal processes and external events that affect value creation
* Highlights how to create resilient organizations that generate greater value from their processes
 
Governance Reimagined offers corporate leaders a new way to think about value, and will help you understand some of the factors that destroy value within organizations, but most importantly how new value can be created and how missions can more ably be fulfilled.
 
This is an important book for these dynamic economic times.

Aus dem Klappentext

Under the right circumstances, self-organized groups of people can do amazing things. We can create products and services that never existed before as well as invent new and better ways of performing both simple and complex tasks. Whether in for-profit or nonprofit organizations, in political economies or informal associations, given the right setting, we can create things that are of substantial value to others, while also creating value for ourselves.
 
But in order to create things, we must be willing to take risks. Governance Reimagined offers one of the most detailed looks at a new way to govern effectively the interactions of organizations that take risks in the pursuit of value.
 
Written by David Koenig-an internationally recognized expert on governance practices and risk management-this book brings together a highly diverse set of ideas to put governance in a new perspective. Divided into four comprehensive parts, this reliable resource walks you through the surprising ways that value is created; the role that perceptions, behavior, and group dynamics play in the success of your organization; and the steps to take in designing the right governance framework to enable any organization to generate the most value from the initiative that caused it to form in the first place.
 
With this book as your guide, you'll gain essential answers to some tough questions, including:
* What do we know about the governance of complex systems that can help us realize the potential of groups and avoid the complexity collapse that so many large organizations experience?
* Can governance structures be designed to address the varying needs and beliefs of those whose perceptions of us are critical to our organization's success?
* How does viewing risk as a "commons," in a networked and distributive environment of governance, allow organizations to deliver more utility and live longer?
* What is the role of trust in what we do, and what is its specific impact on how systems create value?
 
Once you establish an environment in which people can create things that are of value to others outside of your organization, while also creating value for those on the inside, you've succeeded.
 
Governance Reimagined skillfully outlines a practical, and innovative, approach that will help you achieve this elusive goal. Written for directors, corporate executives, elected officials, regulators, students, and those involved in the governance of risk-taking at all types of organizations, there is no other book quite like it.
