Owner-President Governance Program

Efficiently undertaking the Role of Owner is fundamental for our businesses’ to create value. If we want our businesses to grow and establish themselves we must face the challenge of sharing this role, which is to say sharing ownership, institutionalizing it so that it becomes a merit of the team.
 
We need to understand how our governance system operates, how to lead and share the Role of Owner and what results we are reaping.

The OPG offers a set of principles, models and tools that facilitate an understanding of the efficient exercise of Shared Ownership and its impact on Value Creation.
