Governance and Integrated Management Systems

COURSE OBJECTIVE

The Governance of Integrated Management Systems underscores a systematic approach through which integrated management systems are directed and controlled within an organisation. It covers the overall structure and processes for decision-making, accountability, control as well as the behaviour at the top of an organisation and how this influences the successful implementation of management systems. The GIMS influences how an organisation plus its management system objectives, aligned and achieved, how risks are monitored and addressed, as well as the optimisation of performance.

In order to achieve a successful implementation strategy for Integrated Management Systems within today’s dynamic and complex workplaces with a diversity of management system options, a systematic approach that incorporates strategic planning, risk management and performance management is paramount.

Just like culture, the GIMS is a core component that presents unique characteristics of any successful organisation. We focus on the complex nature of the Oil and Gas industry drawing from governance of management systems case studies from leading corporations globally.
