Best Board Practice®-certification procedure
Evaluation of management bodies in accordance with Corporate Governance principles, rewarded with the BBP® label guarantee mark including certificate
Incentive
Corporate governance has gained in importance, both in the public sphere and in organizations. Various events and deviations related to this theme point to the need for action. The Board of Directors/Board of Trustees/Management Board plays a central role in every organization. The selection and composition of panels also has a decisive influence on the long-term success of the organization concerned. Anyone who demonstrably complies with the BBP® requirements gains trust from shareholders/owners, investors, employees, customers, suppliers, government agencies and the public. The organization can demonstrate that its top governing body is carrying out its duties independently, professionally and comprehensively, and has implemented an efficient and effective management and control structure.
