Governance interrelations
Kicking around some ideas related to what “governance” means to eco/grreen - this is a work in progress.
First up is the observation that it’s really “governance of sustainability” which is more expansive than “eco/green governance”.
When applied to an organisation “sustainability” then encompasses ecological sustainability, and also financial sustainability,risk management, human asset management, and operational management. The following graphic illustrates this idea:
Throughout all of these areas are compliance conformance and reporting needs, project portfolio execution and coordination tasks, and strategic planning.
There are numerous ways in which each of these areas interrelate. While a “eco-governance” is a generally new concept it is clear that you can’t actually achieve anything meaningful if you handle it in isolation.
I’m working this up into a full blown article, meanwhile I’m just thinking out loud…
