What does the executive management level of governance primarily establish?

  1. Performance metrics

  2. Business objectives and policies

  3. Cost control measures

  4. Operational protocols

The correct answer is: Business objectives and policies

The executive management level of governance primarily establishes business objectives and policies. This level is crucial as it defines the overall direction and strategies that align with the organization’s mission and vision. Setting clear business objectives ensures that all functions and initiatives are focused on achieving desired outcomes. Policies governed at this level guide decision-making and operational activities, ensuring they align with the organization’s goals. In the context of governance, these business objectives and corresponding policies will help establish a framework for performance assessment and resource allocation across all levels of the organization. This alignment of policies with business objectives is fundamental to driving success and ensuring that the governance structure supports the enterprise's strategic aims.
