boosts compliance. Regular training sessions, refreshers and practical examples foster a strong understanding of expectations, and the risks associated with non-adherence. • Reviewing and Updating the IT Governance and Policy Framework: Effective IT governance and policy frameworks are not static. They must evolve alongside the organization. This can be accomplished through employee/departmental feedback, periodic reviews and approval of the policy by executive management or a governing body. • Monitoring, Measuring and Reporting Success: Performance metrics provide tangible evidence of governance effectiveness. Organizations should identify and measure specific Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) aligned with strategic objectives. KPIs may consider alignment of IT and overall strategic objective outcomes, compliance, efficiency, or even risk. Furthermore, regular reporting to leadership helps maintain strategic alignment, transparency and ongoing support. WHERE TO NEXT?
