CGF'S GOVERNANCE TRAINING VOTED TOPS (2015-08-12)

Article by CGF Research Institute (Pty) Ltd

In an independent South African Corporate Governance Climate Survey (‘the Survey’) conducted by De Facto in April 2015, CGF Research Institute (‘CGF’) was ranked by one-hundred and forty business leaders as the leading organisation in the provision of corporate governance training.  Sixty nine percent (69%) of the respondents recognised CGF as experts in corporate governance training in South Africa, no doubt as a result of CGF’s well-known delivery of high value and affordable training.

The Survey also ranked the ‘independence’ of the leading brands known to provide governance consulting services. In this section, for contenders to be considered the ‘most independent’ as compared to their rivals, they were required to attain a mean score of 1. Again, CGF was ranked the most independent corporate governance supplier in South Africa by 48% of the respondents, with a mean score of 1.6, well ahead of its next rival who was scored at 2.3.

The Survey further addressed ‘trustworthiness’ in the provision of governance news and updates, including training. With a maximum score of 10 -- being the bar of ‘most trustworthy’-- CGF was ranked in first position with a score of 9.1. A well-known non-profit organisation that also specialises in governance services was ranked in second position with a score of 8.2, and interestingly these two organisations were placed well ahead of the major auditing and consulting firms in South Africa.

Expectedly CGF is delighted with these results which provide a fair and representative view of the local market’s current sentiments; however the company is the first to recognise that surveys of any kind should be used with great caution. While CGF is not the biggest corporate governance training provider in South Africa, it certainly appears that CGF’s renowned Governance Beyond Boards® Interventions and its Corporate Governance Framework® Workshops are considered the best and most affordable governance training in South Africa.
