Product Information

Corporate governance is no longer optional or reserved for JSE-listed giants. It applies to every company that wants to grow, lead ethically, attract investment, and avoid reputational or operational risks. In this session, we go beyond theory and get practical. What does governance look like in a typical South African business, and what role should accountants play? Whether you’re advising clients, preparing reports for the board, or responsible for internal controls, this session will help you apply governance principles with confidence, integrity, and relevance.
