Five steps to governance
The five steps to governance are as follows:
1. Establish a sense of urgency.
2. Create the guiding coalition.
3. Develop a vision and planning strategy.
4. Communicate the changed vision.
5. Empower broad-based action.
Establish a sense of urgency
There are simple questions to start with, which can be linked to the complexity of pain points to be solved by the portal solution. The answers to these questions must be clear:
Why are you doing this?
What is the urgency?
How is a portal solution solving the pain points?
What is the impact of not having a portal?
These questions assist in determining how serious your organization is. If the urgency is not there, senior sponsorship enthusiasms and lack of proper attention will impact its course, because it will not be given the appropriate financial support, along with labor resources and genuine funding. In our case study, all the stakeholders shared the sense of urgency when presented with portal roadmap.
