The 2010 Kensington Swan Responsible Governance Award is a major category award within this year's 21st annual Deloitte/Management magazine Top 200 Awards programme. It has been revised, enhanced and broadened in scope to reflect the changes that impact on local and global market acceptance and success.
Investors, employees, customers, suppliers and other stakeholders view responsible governance practices as a measure of organisational integrity. It is an expression of a board’s commitment to ethical and outstanding business performance and leadership. And for those enterprises that embrace, articulate and demonstrate responsible governance, it delivers competitive advantage.
Every successful, sustainable, responsible and future-focused enterprise should aspire to win this award. It reflects a company’s genuine understanding of our new world in which responsible, ethical and sustainable governance defines real success.
Take this opportunity to be recognised for your commitment to responsible governance or nominate another enterprise that you are aware of that is governing responsibly. We want to identify and acknowledge role models, companies that make an outstanding contribution to New Zealand's standing in the world by governing responsibly and ethically.
