Level Progression
How governance in this domain evolves across the five CGMI maturity levels.
L1·Emerging
Meetings happen but notice compliance is inconsistent, minutes are often late or incomplete, and policies exist but aren't actively maintained.
L2·Developing
Meeting notices consistently posted on time, minutes completed within 30 days, basic policy library in place.
L3·Established
Governance processes are documented and followed consistently. Policy library fully compliant, regularly reviewed, and maintained. Board self-assessment conducted annually.
L4·Advanced
Governance processes are measured and their effectiveness is evaluated. Compliance rates are tracked as KPIs. Process improvement is data-driven.
L5·Exemplary
Governance processes evolve continuously based on evidence. The board proactively updates policies in response to regulatory changes before being required to do so.
