10.1. GOVERNANCE AS A STRATEGIC COMPETENCY
A clear objective of this book is to set the stage for the evolution of governance into more than a compliance driven requirement, as well as to suggest ways in which all governance, whether it is IT, SOA governance, data governance, or corporate governance, can and must become more of a scientific endeavor. We feel that governance will become a fundamental competitive advantage-enabling core competency that ensures shareholder value, appropriate leverage of all corporate resources, and transparency and oversight for critical decisions in an enterprise, from the corporate board of directors to specific aspects of SOA governance. Governance in all its shapes and forms is an essential tool in the corporate executive's toolbox.
