解説
Corporate governance is failing-not because boards lack intelligence, experience, or diligence, but because the systems they rely on don't surface the information that truly matters.
Across industries and jurisdictions, boards approve strategies, review risk lists, receive assurance reports, and comply with governance codes-yet remain blindsided by catastrophic failures. Safety collapses. Cultural scandals erupt. Financial integrity breaks down. Courts increasingly ask the same question after the fact: Why didn't the board know?
Mission Critical Governance exposes the root cause of this failure: boards govern without a clearly defined purpose and without reliable oversight of the mission-critical objectives (MCOs) that determine enterprise survival and success.
Drawing on decades of governance practice, landmark court decisions, behavioural science, and emerging regulatory expectations, this book challenges the dominant "checklist" model of governance and replaces it with a new architecture built for uncertainty. It introduces a practical, evidence-based framework that enables boards to:
- Define and disclose board purpose with clarity and accountability
- Identify and oversee MCOs
- Quantify and report uncertainty using Acceptable/Unacceptable Uncertainty thresholds
- Measure confidence in information through the Board Assurance Index (BAI)
- Integrate risk, assurance, culture, and performance into a single oversight system
- Break the destructive Don't Tell/Don't Ask governance syndrome
This is not a compliance manual. It is a redesign of governance itself-from ritual to responsibility, from risk lists to real oversight, from comfort to confidence.
Written for board directors, executives, regulators, investors, auditors, and risk leaders, Mission-Critical Governance provides a clear roadmap for transforming governance into a disciplined, purpose-anchored system capable of earning trust, withstanding scrutiny, and guiding organizations through an era of relentless uncertainty.
The question is no longer whether boards must govern differently.
The question is whether they will lead-or wait for courts, crises, and capital markets to force the change.
