What is CG
• The Board is one part of the Management• The most important task is to stimulate the
CEO/Managing Director to do the Right things
Without Supervisory Councils- an important part of management is MISSING!
![Page 17: Justin Bankforts - Baltic Institute for Corporate Governance](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022051615/552e3e8d550346427b8b4909/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

• Where are we?• Where should we go?• How should we get there?A Business Plan with these questions should be produced and followed up
