E-Governance Is Good Governance Excerpt
Sarbox and other compliance rulings have pushed some companies to adopt e-governance tools like board portals. But there’s a lot more to be gained through keeping executives informed about the business’ operations.
In “E-Governance Is Good Governance,” from “Internet
Management for Nonprofits,” authors Dottie Schindlinger and Leanne Bergey
define e-governance and examine how Web-based technologies like board portals can
improve leadership and management.
While focusing on improving these qualities in the boards of non-profit
organizations, these technologies have applicability in for-profit business as tools
for facilitating document sharing, communication and collaboration. Sarbanes-Oxley and
other legislation have goaded many companies to adopt e-governance principles in order
to comply with transparency rules.
