Organization of articles of association and governance

When drawing up articles of association and shaping the governance, it is all about the interpretation of control, management and supervision within an organization. It is important how different corporate bodies relate to each other. These issues arise in all types of companies and different principles and rules may apply to each type of company. This can be seen in family businesses and small and medium-sized enterprises. But also at foundations and associations. As experts in the field of governance, we are familiar with the dynamics that play a role in decision-making processes and are happy to discuss this with you.
