Board of Directors and Corporate Governance
The role of the Board of Directors in Corporate Governance is a key topic for Zambian tertiary students in health leadership. This subject covers board responsibilities: setting strategic direction, overseeing management, ensuring legal/ethical compliance, and safeguarding stakeholder interests. Students examine board committees (e.g., audit, remuneration) and principles of good governance, such as separating the roles of Chairman and CEO. Essential for exams and for leadership in larger health organizations or public-private partnerships in Zambia, this knowledge equips future leaders to understand oversight structures, advocate for transparency, and contribute to ethical and effective health service governance.
