Governance sketch
Sketch to describe the very worst of traditional governance theatre.
What’s interesting?
Governance is the management framework that ensures the right things are delivered in the right way, but this isn’t how it works in many organisations.
The picture describes how traditional governance practices block delivery at pace:
Meeting hell and an industry of status reporting and slides

The enormous amount of effort that goes into predicting the future
People are being seen as resources to be thrown at a project or programme.
