Policies and Procedures for Your Organization

Organizations need governance documents; those policies, procedures, and other written rules that tell the organization and employees what to do and how to do it. These documents are an important part of management to help the organization comply with legal requirements, accomplish its mission, and run efficiently. Policies have legal significance and are the first things requested by a government regulator or civil plaintiff-they could be Exhibit 1 in a lawsuit.

Or they could be quality documents that keep your organization's practices in compliance and avoid a lawsuit in the first place. This course helps you and your organization build effective and quality governance documents. It aligns with my 2025 book and provides the highlights from it.

Policies are about both the destination and the journey. With a solid process you can improve your organization and the individuals on your project team while you create or update your documents. This is for any type of organization and can be applied to any topic and any type of governance document.

Learn about the Five Components for Policy Work and how to apply them for your company, non-profit, or government entity. Some portions are specific to cybersecurity, an essential area and you will learn about the Four Pillars of Cybersecurity. The course is divided into sections (which track the book parts):Section 1 lays foundation of policy principles, including Bandler's Five Components for Policy Work to ensure your governance documents consider organization mission, laws, best practices, existing governance documents and practices.
