Organizational Policy: Directs All Directors

By George Obua | Project Leader

Directors obey the organizational policies

Organizational Policy That Directs all Directors

It is to the policy of Kole Intellectual Forum that: all the directors must regularly check on their organization with the interest to fulfill their legal, ethical, and fiduciary duties and ensure the organizational long-term success and sustainability. Key reasons to these include:

Monitoring Progress: Directors track the organizational financial and operational performance against set objectives and the strategic plan.
Guiding Strategy: They provide guidance, fresh perspectives, and approval on the organizational long-term vision and strategy, adjusting direction when necessary.
Evaluating Management: A key duty is to supervise and assess the performance of the executive management team (including hiring/firing the CEO) to ensure they are acting in the best interests of the organization and its shareholders.
Identifying and Mitigating Risks: Directors are responsible for overseeing the organizational risk management framework, identifying potential threats (financial, operational, compliance), and ensuring robust controls are in place to safeguard assets and reputation.
Ensuring Legal and Regulatory Compliance: They ensure the organization adheres to all applicable laws, regulations, and reporting requirements (e.g., tax law, occupational health and safety, data protection), thereby avoiding legal issues, penalties, and reputational damage.
Promoting Ethical Conduct: The board sets the "tone at the top," fostering a culture of integrity, transparency, and ethical business practices throughout the organization.
Fulfilling Fiduciary Duties: Directors have a legal obligation to act in good faith and in the best interests of the company and its members as a whole.
Accountability to Shareholders: They represent the interests of shareholders and must ensure transparency by regularly reviewing and approving financial statements and disclosing relevant information, which builds investor confidence; and
Avoiding Conflicts of Interest: Regular oversight helps identify and manage potential conflicts of interest among directors and management, ensuring decisions are made solely for the benefit of organization.
