Govn365 Story

Govn365 Story

When Mike O’Brien saw the impact and benefits of the Safe365 technology transforming the health and safety sector, he immediately recognised the same could be achieved across governance. Together with Nathan Hight and Mark Kidd, they founded Govn365 which leverages the innovative Safe365 platform to provide a tech solution for governance groups.

We spoke to a wide range of organisations and discovered governance groups lack an effective playbook to improve governance. Govn365 was designed in response to their needs. Governance groups that have embraced the Govn365 approach are already seeing the benefits of a transparent approach that brings structure to what they already know.

Govn365 is a tool that has further been enhanced to meet the ISO 37000 global governance standard. It provides a robust roadmap to improve the performance of governance groups across all industry sectors. We enable directors, CE's and boards to do better, so their organisations do better too.

Together, we demonstrate that good governance improves performance.

Our Purpose

We Simplify Governance

Govn365 Values

Our values drive who we are and what we do. Get to know them and get to know us in the process.

Simplicity
We value the simple. Taking complex ideas, processes or frameworks and making them easy to understand and therefore approachable. Things don’t need to be tricky, in order for them to be good.

 

Mutuality
We gravitate towards relationships, partnerships and products that everyone gains from, where the benefits outweigh the risks on all sides. We want to grow, improve and gain and we want that for you too.

 

Growth
Growth is at the heart and soul of everything we do. We continuously strive to learn more and share this knowledge with those around us. Where we are now, is far from where we will be in the future.

 

Curiosity
Fortunately, curiosity has not killed the cat and we continue to foster innovation and creativity. We’re constantly asking questions and exploring things, seeking to understand the new and look at things from the upside down.

 

Wellbeing
We look after each other, look out for each other and take care of one another. We think empathically and act compassionately and show up as real, vulnerable humans. We eat the cake, but we also make friends with salads.
