Governance Checklist

 


People always say governance is just about ticking boxes, right? Well, here’s a list of boxes you should definitely be ticking if you want to stay on top of things:

✅ Ensure everyone knows who’s in charge – because nothing says “smooth sailing” like clear accountability!

✅ Make decisions based on facts – gut feelings are great… for weekend plans, not for project governance.

✅ Keep risks under control – because ignoring them doesn’t make them go away (sadly).

✅ Get the right approvals – you can’t just "wing it" and hope for the best.

✅ Communicate clearly – no one likes mystery emails or ambiguous updates.

✅ Stick to the plan – but be adaptable, because we all know nothing ever goes 100% as planned.

✅ Review progress regularly – because you can’t fix what you don’t monitor.

✅ Learn from mistakes – or just keep making them, your choice!

There you go, a solid list of boxes worth ticking! Governance is about more than paperwork—it’s about keeping everything running well, and those boxes actually matter. Even if we don’t realise it.
