Providing Governance Advice to Associations

United Kingdom & Australia

About Governology

Governology is a governance advisory firm dedicated to assisting associations and charities. We operate in the UK and Australia, and we are a law firm in Australia.

We advise boards and senior management on governance, structures, constitutions, tax, mergers and other practical matters unique to associations and charities.

Associations are mutual or charitable organisations that exist to advance their purpose as stated in their Rules, Articles or Constitution. They have members yet never have shareholders as no financial returns can be received from being a member. Typically, the sector is called 'not-for-profit', however, it is increasingly called 'for-purpose' as it is appropriate to make a profit which must be retained within the association.

Our Clients

  UIMLA approached Governology in the context of a complex and sensitive situation within our international association. Having been impressed by their previous work and publications, we asked them to provide independent advice to help us sense-check our approach and guide our next steps.
 
Their advice was clear, well-structured and, above all, practical. In particular, their guidance on how to frame roles, responsibilities and lines of accountability proved extremely valuable in helping us navigate a sensitive and evolving situation.

While the underlying issues are not ones that can be resolved overnight, Governology’s input has given us confidence that we are acting in a considered and appropriate way, and continues to support us as we manage the situation.
