Why Policy Talk?

Actually, it is my colleagues (especially Joey Bonifacio from Manila) that really pushed me to start this blog. I must admit though, that I really am passionate about Policy Governance. Policy Governance is an invention by John Carver, hence some call Policy Governance simply the Carver Model. Our organization found out about the model a couple of years ago and have implemented it for our world-wide movement-- and I am so glad we did! I believe we have some of the best leaders you will find anywhere, but finding a system and process for them to govern a complex organization like ours has been challenging. Now we have a track to run on. Policy Governance gave us that track and now we are running like never before. This blog will talk about the model and allow others trying to understand it to comment and ask questions.
