CARMA™ Framework Board Governance Manual

$197.00

Closing the gap between what your governance documents say and what actually happens. The board-level playbook for governance that survives due diligence, litigation, and regulatory review — using the CARMA™ Framework.

Description

The CARMA™ Framework Board Governance Manual is the practical, execution-focused guide for boards, CEOs, and general counsel who need governance that works in practice — not just on paper. Its premise: contracts are the business, and the dangerous gap is between Legality (what your documents say) and Reality (what your organization actually does). This is the Governance Gap — and it surfaces destructively during due diligence, litigation, D&O claims, DOJ and regulatory review, and audits. This manual gives the board the infrastructure to close it.

Inside the manual

  • The board’s role to champion, resource, and verify CARMA™ — not run it.
  • The AAA Standard (Awareness, Alignment, Assurance) mapped to the IIA Three Lines Model.
  • The CARMA™ Committee — a management-level governance body chaired by the GC/CLO that runs the 90-Day Governance Audit and reports directly to the board.
  • The General Counsel Charter and the Delegation of Authority policy framework.
  • Governance continuity in crisis, plus charter templates and board-resolution language.
Who it is for: Directors, board chairs, CEOs, and general counsel. Pairs with the operating manuals — this one tells leadership how to build the system. Grounded in COSO ERM, the IIA Three Lines Model, and the DOJ Evaluation of Corporate Compliance Programs.
